Marvel Rivals: A Free-to-Play Guide to Acquiring Units

While Marvel Rivals is free-to-play, it utilizes microtransactions and various in-game currencies, including Units, for cosmetic purchases. This guide details how to obtain Units without spending real money.

What are Units?

Units are the in-game currency used to purchase cosmetic items such as character skins and sprays. Browse the in-game Shop to view available items. Remember, cosmetics don't affect gameplay; heroes and their abilities remain accessible regardless of purchases.

How to Earn Units

There are two primary methods for acquiring Units: the Battle Pass and completing missions.

Battle Pass:

The free Battle Pass track provides a substantial number of Units. Progressing through matches unlocks more rewards, including Units and Lattice (exchangeable for additional Units). While a premium Battle Pass offers more rewards, the free track is a viable option for acquiring Units.

Completing Missions:

Seasonal missions offer a significant source of Units, along with other in-game currencies like Chrono Tokens and Lattice. Focus on these time-limited missions, as daily and weekly missions typically do not reward Units.

By utilizing these methods, you can steadily accumulate Units to customize your Marvel Rivals experience. For further game tips and strategies, including information on rank resets, consult The Escapist.
