When you log in after maintenance, you’ll find several major updates waiting for you:

  • Two members of the Fantastic Four are available immediately: Mister Fantastic and Invisible Girl
  • A new Battle Pass with double the content compared to Season 0, priced at 990 Lattice
  • Balance changes for multiple heroes, with significant updates to Hela, Hawkeye, Jeff The Land Shark, Captain America, Venom, Wolverine, Storm, and Cloak & Dagger
  • A new competitive rank called Celestial, sitting between Grandmaster and Eternity

Remember that while the maintenance is scheduled for about 2 hours and 10 minutes, it could take longer depending on technical needs. Keep an eye on the official Marvel Rivals social media channels for real-time updates on the maintenance progress.
