Marvel Rivals Season 6.5 continues to pour in content to the game with the latest update introducing two new events. Among them is Faulty Dream, a nightmare-themed campaign which sees the debut of the free ‘Phantom Sorcerer’ Doctor Strange costume. While Rivals releases free skins all the time, few are of the same quality as this new look for Stephen Strange, and earning it is pretty straightforward as well.
With this in mind, we’ve put together a guide on how to get the free Doctor Strange skin in Marvel Rivals, along with an overview of how the new event works.
Marvel Rivals Faulty Dream Event Explained
The Marvel Rivals Fault Dream event is a mini-campaign, where you’ll need to complete daily missions to unlock free rewards. The event is currently live as part of Rivals’ Season 6.5 roadmap, but it’ll end on March 20, 2026, at 9 AM UTC. During the event, you’ll need to log in every day and complete an assigned mission to progress through the rewards track.
It’s important to note that new missions are revealed over time. So, you won’t be able to complete all nine missions on the first day.
How to Get Free Doctor Strange Skin in Marvel Rivals

To get the free Doctor Strange ‘Phantom Sorcerer’ skin in Marvel Rivals, you’ll need to complete all nine missions in the Fautly Dream event. Due to the release schedule of each event, it’ll take multiple days to complete the rewards track, but at the end, you will be rewarded with a free skin.
The ‘Phantom Sorcerer’ costume gives the arcane doctor a nightmarish makeover, courtesy of some corruption from the Witch. Consumed by evil intent, Doctor Strange’s new avatar turns him into a monstrous mage with a striking attire.
