How To Get Star-Lord’s Spring Festival Costume For Free

Marvel Rivals’ latest event, The Spring Festival, will be starting soon, bringing a brand-new free skin for Star-Lord. If you’re wondering why the event called The Spring Festival is happening so early in the year, that’s because the event is meant to tie in with the Lunar New Year, which is also called Spring Festival in China. Likely, Marvel Rivals wanted to avoid even more Overwatch comparisons by calling it the Lunar New Year event the same way Overwatch does.

The Spring Festival will include a new limited-time mode – basically Overwatch’s Lucio Ball, which pits teams of three against one another. Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist in Marvel Rivals are the only heroes available in the new mode and are also the ones getting new skins for the event. While not all three are free, Star-Lord’s new lion-themed costume is.

Star-Lord’s New Skin Can Be Gained By Doing Event Missions

Star-Lord’s new Marvel Rivals skin has him sporting a lion-shaped mask and a flowing blonde mane to match. He also has a fur-lined jacket and fluffy adornments for his guns. If you want this unique look, you need only participate in the Spring Festival Event and complete a series of challenges.

NetEase has just launched a new trailer showcasing the Spring Festival coming to the title in just a few days, and the skins look great.

What exactly you will need to do hasn’t been revealed yet, but it will likely work similarly to Marvel Rivals’ Winter Festival and the free Jeff skin. This involved completing missions that were specific to the Winter Festival limited-time event and collecting a unique in-game currency to spend on unlocking event-related items. If you want to unlock Star-Lord’s new skin, better be prepared to try out the new soccer-like mode and likely fulfill some specific related requests.

When Marvel Rivals’ Spring Festival Begins

The Marvel Rivals Spring Festival event will begin on January 23, 2025, at 9:00 am UTC. This translates to 4:00 am ET or 1:00 am PT. The event’s start coincides with this year’s Lunar New Year, which takes place on January 22, 2023. As of now, there is no listed end date for the event.

Using Overwatch as a model, which seems to be a safe bet with Rivals at this point, the Spring Festival may become an annual event. Players disappointed with this year’s crop of new skins may, therefore, have something to look forward to if they don’t play any of the three heroes featured this time. In addition to Star-Lord’s new look, Marvel Rivals will also be adding a new skin for Spider-Man from Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 to coincide with the PC release of the game on January 30, 2025.
