Players will now be able to earn Marvel Rivals accessory points in Arcade matches, which is based on the match mode. Accessory points are a progression feature that lets heroes unlock additional customization options while playing.

New Map, Shou-Lao Event, and Resource Rumble Updates

The patch comes with a new Convergence map: K'un-Lun: Heart of Heaven, set in the Enigma, City of the Immortals. The map has zoning to map on, vertical navigational play, and lively encounters made to stimulate casual and competitive play alike.

This patch also marks the beginning of the Shou-Lao’s Blessing event. The Immortal Dragon Shou-Lao has returned, and it's your opportunity to earn a Costume Coin, 500 Units, and 500 Unstable Molecules for completing event objectives. The event is live from September 25 and October 9, 2025 (UTC). That is two full weeks for players to participate.

The Resource Rumble mode has been improved for quicker and more fun games. Fewer resources per area have been changed from 210 to 200. The breakpoint for Rumble Phase has been changed from 60 points to 100 points. The Extract Phase victory targets from the 360 points have been reduced to 300 points. Rumble Phase victory targets from the original 300 points have been reduced to 200 points. There are some spawn room improvements for faster speeds and movement through the jump pad at points A and C to make it easier for heroes without mobility abilities to get into the action much quicker.

It also incorporates competitive viewing options via the in-game Tournament Livestreams Hub, so players can watch Marvel Rivals Ignite Stage 2 matches live in person via the Tournament tab. The Twitch Drops period runs from September 25 to October 23, 2025. If a viewer has enough watch time to qualify, they will be rewarded with an item (for example, Rocket Raccoon - Will of Galacta costume and bundle content).

Fixes, Hero Updates, and Console Improvements

The September patch fixes multiple bugs across all platforms. The 'Hot & Trending' Achievement for Human Torch is fixed so that it won’t fail in rare instances. Bug fixes were made to the Battle Pass bonuses and the invisibility cloak during the results screen. Bugs about player name anonymity effects and spectator cameras were fixed.

Hero-specific improvements consist of adjusting the Stretching the Limits and Rubber Rebound powers of Mister Fantastic to deliver consistent damage. Peni Parker's Spider-Sync was also fixed to ensure the sound effects now correspond with the drone launching. Frosty Footwork was fixed so Luna Snow's Ultimate Ability centers properly.

Updates to the console address issues with chat box functionality so that it automatically focuses and triggers the virtual keyboard appropriately. Altogether, these updates enhance the reliability of gameplay and improve the overall player experience.

With the addition of Marvel Rivals latest accessories, Shou-Lao event, a new map, Resource Rumble tweaks, Twitch Drops, and a plethora of bugs squashed, this patch strengthens casual and competitive play.
