How to Earn Units and Event Currencies
All Marvel Rivals Anniversary Event cosmetics are tied to various limited-time currencies. Here’s how to rack up every possible reward:
-
Daily Logins: Score 1,500 Units in total by logging in each day. That’s 200 Units a day for the first 6 days, 300 on day 7—enough for a premium skin or several emotes, but remember, these expire after December 18.
-
Rivals Assemble Missions: Invite up to five friends and complete co-op “Assemble” missions to rack up another 600 Units plus a unique emote. Progress is tracked on the Anniversary screen—easy to follow and complete in casual games.
-
“Rivals’ Day” and Social Bonuses: Join the Times Square hub event on December 6. You’ll walk away with 200 extra Units and an exclusive event title just for participating.
-
Jeff’s Break Time Event: Play matches in Quick Match, Arcade, Competitive, or vs AI to earn “Snack Silver” (free) or “Gourmet Gold” (premium) event currency. These unlock cosmetics via an interactive vending machine—think loot drop but totally free for all regular items.
Throughout the event, you’ll use Snack Silver to buy random snacks (cosmetics) from the vending machine. Every reward is confirmed and distributed in randomized order, so persistent play will net every cosmetic.
Cosmetics and Free Anniversary Skins
Here’s a fast summary of rewards you’ll find by participating or completing objectives:
-
Jeff “Business Shark” Skin: The only free anniversary costume, unlocked by collecting event Snack Silver. This skin comes with customizable suit, glasses, tie, and tail unlocks for even more personalization.

Why Players Are Racing for These Cosmetics
Anniversary Event cosmetics in Marvel Rivals are rare—many can only be earned during this short festival. Collecting them is a badge of dedication, and some like the Jeff and Reed (Mister Fantastic) themed rewards are particularly sought-after by the community. Since all methods here require zero spending, collectors and new players alike can bulk up their cosmetic library just by playing throughout the next few weeks.
Officially, only the Jeff skin is strictly free. The rest are included in randomized vending pulls with no paywall, provided you generate enough Snack Silver (just by playing). Players keen on cosmetic exclusivity or who want full cosmetic completion should prioritize daily logins and clear the free vending rewards before December 18.
What’s Next for Marvel Rivals Event Players
The Marvel Rivals team is already teasing more live event phases. Look for reminders via the in-game news feed and official Marvel Rivals accounts for exclusive rewards (including Phase 2 extra Units and new vending prizes dropping December 4–11). Unspent Units, “Snack Silver,” and associated cosmetics will expire at event’s end, so check progress regularly and redeem rewards before downtime.
