So, if you are looking to learn more about them, here’s everything we know about the Marvel Rivals Accessories system so far.

What Are Accessories in Marvel Rivals?

Accessories in Marvel Rivais are similar to weapon charms in popular live-service games such as Valorant and Apex Legends. However, unlike weapons, they are bite-sized cosmetics that can be equipped on specific heroes. According to the Accessories system’s reveal trailer, these items can be earned for free by redeeming Accessory Points.

Depending on the character, the accessory is displayed on a different part of their body. For instance, Emma Frost’s accessory hangs off her wrist, Jeff the Shark’s plushie dangles off his fin, and Psylocke’s charm is tied to the hilt of her katana.

Moreover, each accessory comes with a unique KO animation that is displayed on the right-hand side of the screen after every elimination.

How to Get Accessory Points

Accessory Points in Marvel Rivals can be earned by playing matches in either the Quick Match or Competitive modes. It’s unclear how many points are required to obtain an accessory, or if there are any other ways to get Accessory Points. There’s a possibility that the currency could be purchased via microtransactions in the future, but this has yet to be confirmed.

Leaks suggest that there is a weekly cap on the amount of points players receive. If true, this could be a measure to prevent players from acquiring all the Accessories in a short span of time. We’ll be sure to update this section with more details once they’re revealed.
