Summary
NetEase Games has announced a one-week extension for the Hellfire Gala Moments event in Marvel Rivals. In celebration of the game’s Closed Alpha anniversary, the developers have also introduced the Galacta’s Gift event. An exciting new feature allows players to utilize up to five sprays at once during gameplay.
Community Frustration Over Hellfire Gala Moments
Players of Marvel Rivals have voiced their dissatisfaction regarding the recently introduced Hellfire Gala Moments event. In a move to bring back the Season 0 battle pass, NetEase Games has provided an opportunity for those who previously missed it to purchase it again for a limited duration. Importantly, players can take their time completing the battle pass, as it does not have a deadline once acquired.
Celebrating One Year of Marvel Rivals
Alongside the Hellfire Gala Moments event, NetEase Games has rolled out the Galacta’s Gift event to mark the one-year anniversary of the Closed Alpha for Marvel Rivals. This celebration allows fans to engage with the game for the first time and has been described as a thrilling milestone for the development team. Participants can earn rewards such as sprays, Chrono Shield Cards, and a Costume Coin. The Costume Coin can be exchanged for one of the 33 skins that were available at the game’s launch in December 2024. However, it’s important to note that while the Costume Coin unlocks a specific skin, it does not provide access to an entire skin bundle. Players wishing to complete a costume bundle can do so at a reduced price.
New Skins and Community Feedback
In an exciting update, Marvel Rivals has unveiled new skins for Adam Warlock and Scarlet Witch, thrilling fans of the hero shooter developed by NetEase Games. A Reddit user, GrowthImmediate6430, conveyed their frustration regarding the Hellfire Gala Moments event, which offers a range of cosmetic rewards, including a new outfit for Wolverine. They highlighted that some of the event’s phrasing is confusing, making it difficult for players to understand the requirements to transition from Act 2 to Act 3. This confusion is compounded by the multiple stages present in Act 2.
Event Extension and Future Outlook
Adding to the complexity, the user noted that after finishing Act 2, they were unable to progress in the event for the remainder of the day. Given the event’s time constraints, this scenario could hinder a player’s ability to complete it entirely. The Hellfire Gala Moments event has become particularly frustrating for those eager to unlock the Patch costume for Wolverine, as it requires navigating several challenges within a limited timeframe. Fortunately, the latest patch notes for Marvel Rivals indicate a one-week extension for the event, allowing players additional time to understand and complete the necessary tasks. Furthermore, the patch notes introduced the ability for players to use up to five sprays simultaneously during matches. Despite some recent challenges with Season 2, many fans remain hopeful about the future developments for Marvel Rivals.
