The event was introduced through the Version 20260521 update, which added the Savage Adventure pass alongside several new cosmetic offerings in the in-game store.

The event was launched on 21st May 2026 at 09:00 UTC and will run upto 25th June 2026 at 09:00 UTC. In this period you can complete event missions and play matches to earn experience points using which you can advance your progress through the event pass.

Like the other Marvel Rivals event passes Savage Adventure has 24 total rewards divided between free and premium tracks. You will automatically gain access to the free track but for the premium track you will have to buy a VIP upgrade using Lattice.

The event mainly focuses on cosmetic rewards rather than gameplay advantages. This means that the progression will remain fair for all pairs no matter if you purchase the premium pass or not.

How Event Progression Works

The structure of progression in Savage Adventure is pretty simple. You will have to earn event experience by participating in matches across Marvel Rivals. You don't have to use specific heroes or play a particular game mode. Quick Match, Ranked and all other available modes will contribute toward event progression.

Whenever you complete a match you will get experience that you can use to move forward in the reward tiers. For each tier you will need to collect 1,600 XP. As you collect XP you will keep unlocking rewards throughout the pass.

To start progressing, follow these simple steps:

• Open the Events tab in Marvel Rivals and select the Savage Adventure event pass.
• Play matches to earn event XP.
• Advance through the tiers to unlock rewards and claim them from the pass menu.

The whole progression is based mainly on regular gameplay so you don't have to complete any complex or special challenges to progress.

How to Get the Free Ultron Cybernetic Drip Skin

Ultron's Cybernetic Drip costume is the main highlight of this event. This is an Epic rarity costume and is completely free. To unlock it you will have to first reach Tier 12 in the Savage Adventure event pass. After you reach Tier 12 the costume will automatically become available and you can claim it from the event rewards screen.

The costume is a game-original design for Ultron introduced during Season 8. Its theme focuses on a redesigned appearance that is very different from Ultron's normal look. There are also a lot of matching cosmetic items in the Ultron Cybernetic Drip bundle. This makes it one of the most valuable free rewards in Season 8.

Cybernetic Drip Bundle Rewards

Let us take a look at all the rewards you can get for free in the Ultron Cybernetic Drip bundle:

• Cybernetic Drip Costume
• Cybernetic Drip Nameplate
• Ultron Shiny and New Emote
• Cybernetic Drip Spray

You can also get the Ultron Cybernetic Drip Emoji Bundle but it is not free of cost. Using these rewards you can fully customize your Ultron profile presentation and in-game cosmetic collection around the Cybernetic Drip theme. Also the Cybernetic Drip spray features Rex the Robot Dog which adds a unique visual touch to the bundle.

Free Rewards

Let us take a look at all the other free rewards you can get from this event:

• Hela Savage Monarch Nameplate
• Hela Savage Monarch Spray
• Sipping Stars Spray
• Devil Dinosaur + Moon Girl Mood Bundle
• 400 Chrono Tokens
• 200 Unstable Molecules

This is a very good combination of cosmetics, currencies, sprays, nameplates and emotes that you can get without spending premium currency. If you are a free-to-play player then you can get all these items just by participating in the event consistently. You can also stack up more freebies by redeeming the latest Marvel Rivals codes for extra rewards.

Premium Pass Rewards

Now if you buy the premium Savage Adventure VIP pass you will be able to access an additional reward track. It will cost you 990 Lattice which is about $10. The actual price might change depending upon where you live. If you are short on currency, you can get a quick Marvel Rivals top up to grab the VIP upgrade before the event ends. The best platform to make the top-up is LDShop, it lets players top up for less and it is a great way to save money.

Let us take a look at all the exclusive rewards you can get from the premium pass:

Reward Type	Item
MVP Animation	Hela - Dark Ritual MVP
MVP Animation	Luna Snow - Set the Speed MVP
Costume	Hela Savage Monarch Costume
Costume	Luna Snow Sonic Trailblazer Costume
Nameplate	Luna Snow Sonic Trailblazer Nameplate
Emote	Hela Wild Spirit Emote
Emote	Luna Snow Checkered Wave Emote
Emoji Bundle	Hela Savage Monarch Emoji Bundle I
Emoji Bundle	Hela Savage Monarch Emoji Bundle II
Emoji Bundle	Luna Snow Sonic Trailblazer Emoji Bundle I
Emoji Bundle	Luna Snow Sonic Trailblazer Emoji Bundle II

The two premium costumes are probably the most visually stunning rewards in the whole event. Hela's Savage Monarch outfit is focused on the Savage Land theme with a tribal-inspired appearance. And Luna Snow's Sonic Trailblazer costume has a racing-inspired design.

Is the Premium Pass Worth Buying?

The answer to this question depends mostly on what heroes you prefer to use. If you mainly want to use Ultron then you can just stay on the free track and forget about the premium pass. This is because the Cybernetic Drip costume and all the related items are already free.

But if you think you will frequently use Hela or Luna Snow then the premium pass is actually very valuable. The exclusive costumes, emotes, MVP animations and additional cosmetics will give you a really good collection of items for those characters.

Also if you buy the premium pass then you can continue participating in the event even after it has ended. So you will have a lot less pressure and a lot more time to get all the rewards before they are removed from the game. If you are a dedicated Hela and Luna Snow player then the premium upgrade will give you a lot more cosmetic content than the free path.

Tips for Faster Progression

If you want to unlock Cybernetic Drip as quickly as possible then you have to focus on participating in matches consistently. Here are some tips using which you can do so much more efficiently:

• Play matches regularly rather than waiting until the final week.
• Take advantage of all available game modes because most of them will contribute toward your event progression.
• Focus on completing matches rather than constantly switching activities.
• Look at your event progress frequently so that you can track your tier advancement.
• From the very beginning aim for Tier 12 and then get the free Ultron costume before trying to get more rewards.

Because the event is primarily experience-based, steady gameplay remains the most effective progression strategy.

Conclusion

The Savage Adventure event offers plenty of rewards no matter if you are a F2P or a P2P player. Keep in mind that the event is mainly based on experience. So the more consistently you play matches the faster you will get the rewards.
