- Marvel Rivals August 21 update added a new in-game event with more skins to claim.
- Players can claim free Doctor Strange skins for a limited time.
- More skins are available throughout Season 3.5 to claim for free.
As Marvel Rivals battles Knull’s symbiote army in its cosmic-themed season 3.5, NetEase is providing a plethora of free skins via in-game events, battle passes, and special promotions. From Thor’s electric Worthy Waves skin to Thing’s grungy Symbiote Thing style, players may customize their lineup by completing challenges, progressing event passes, and interacting with the game’s active community.
Marvel Rivals’ free skin offerings have become a defining feature, rewarding loyal players with distinctive cosmetics that enhance the game’s fast-paced, team-based gameplay. Season 3.5’s events, such as the Queen’s Codex and Summer Special passes, have already provided fans with free skins, while platform-specific incentives, such as Spider-Man’s Scarlet Spider skin for PS Plus users, provide a unique twist.
The spotlight now shines on two highly anticipated additions: a Doctor Strange skin linked to an NVIDIA offer and another free Doctor Strange costume included in the latest Ancient Powers Awaken event pass. Here’s how you can get them both.
How to Get Doctor Strange Master of Black Magic Skin for Free in Marvel Rivals
To get the Doctor Strange Master of Black Magic skin for free in Marvel Rivals, players can take advantage of limited-time promos, particularly through NVIDIA’s GeForce Rewards program. If you own a GeForce GTX 10 Series GPU or newer, install the NVIDIA app on your PC, create or log into your NVIDIA account, and then go to the Redeem area.
Look for the Master of Black Magic skin promo, then click to claim it and get a unique code. To unlock the skin in Marvel Rivals, go to the main menu and click “Bundle Code,” then enter the code.
This promotion, which runs until September 18, 2025, is first-come, first-served, so act immediately because supplies are limited. If the free offer is not available, the skin can be purchased in-game for 600 Units instead.
How to Get Doctor Strange Old Man Strange Skin for Free in Marvel Rivals
To get the Doctor Strange Old Man Strange skin for free in Marvel Rivals, players can participate in the Ancient Powers Awaken Event, which starts on August 21, 2025, at 9 AM UTC. During this event, finish matches to earn XP, which advances the Event Pass and unlocks the Old Man Strange cosmetic for free.
The free track requires no extra purchases; however, purchasing the premium Event Pass offers permanent access to goodies, including this skin, even after the event has ended. Log in to Marvel Rivals, play matches, and track your progress in the Event Pass menu to claim the skin before the event ends. Act soon, as event rewards are time-sensitive, and missing the deadline may lead you to purchasing the skin later when it appears in the shop.
