Marvel Rivals is celebrating its one-year anniversary (Closed Alpha Test) with the upcoming Galacta's Gift event, giving players a chance to earn free rewards as a thank you for their support. Alongside this event, NetEase Games is bringing back the Season 0 Battle Pass for a limited time. Here's everything we know about the upcoming event - Galacta's Gift.
How Does the Galacta's Gift Event Work?
According to the Dev Talk announcement, players will be able to earn rewards simply by playing the game after the May 15th update.
While NetEase hasn't revealed the exact mechanics of the event yet, they've emphasized that the rewards will be accessible through regular gameplay. We'll add more details about how to join in after the event starts!
Galacta's Gift Event Date and Duration
The Galacta's Gift event will kick off following the May 15th, 2025 update. While the exact end date for the Galacta's Gift celebration hasn't been specified in the announcement, we do know that the returning S0 Battle Pass will be available for exactly two weeks.
The S0 Battle Pass will return from May 15th, 2025, at 2:00 AM PDT until May 29th, 2025, at 2:00 AM PDT. Given that both are launching simultaneously, it's possible the Galacta's Gift event may run for a similar duration, but we'll confirm the exact timeframe once the event goes live.
All Galacta's Gift Event Rewards
The Galacta's Gift event comes packed with several rewards that players can earn through gameplay. Players can expect to receive:
- Nameplates
- Sprays
- Chrono Shield Cards
- Costume Coin: Perhaps the most exciting reward, this will allow players to redeem the debut costume for any one of the 33 heroes featured in Season 0. It's worth noting that this is for the base costume only, not the complete bundle that would include extras like emotes and MVP animation.
Note: We'll update this section with the exact rewards soon.
The Return of the Season 0 Battle Pass
Alongside the Galacta's Gift event, Marvel Rivals is bringing back the Season 0 Battle Pass for those who missed it the first time around. Here are the key details:
- The returning S0 Battle Pass will be available at a special price of 590 Lattice, which is a limited-time promotional rate.
- Unlike the original release, this return version will not include any free rewards – all items will require the Luxury Battle Pass purchase to unlock.
If you started playing after Season 0, this is your chance to get those early cosmetics that many players already have. Lots of newer players have been asking for these items, so it's nice they're finally available again.
We'll update this article with more details about both the Galacta's Gift event after May 15th. Stay tuned!
