The June 25th Marvel Rivals update drops a fresh summer event, new swimsuit skins, and a Twitch drop series tied to the Creator World Championship.

New Store Offerings and Limited‑Time Drops
The in‑game store introduces several bundles:
- Daredevil – Sonar Savior Bundle
- Black Widow – Aquatic Assassin Bundle
- Daredevil – Sonar Savior Emoji Bundle
- Daredevil – Sonar Savior Custom Patches
- Black Widow – Aquatic Assassin Chroma (Toxic Trace / Golden Gossamer) and Custom Patches

From June 26 at 2 AM UTC until July 24, the Cyclops X‑Press Juice emote will be available for purchase.
Twitch Drops for the Creator World Championship
During the championship, which runs from June 26 at midnight to July 19 at 9 PM UTC, viewers can earn exclusive sprays and emojis.
Performance and Bug Fixes
Mobile and console optimisations include:
- PC: NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 Frame Generation (Auto Mode) now aligns frame‑generation targets automatically with monitor refresh rates, stabilising visual output.
- Xbox Series S: Full optimisation of the K’un‑Lun: Shenloong Arena – 18 VS 18 Bounty Annihilation mode and map.
- Heroes: Cyclops’s Optic Overdrive displacement bug resolved. Magneto’s Metal Bulwark now consistently applies to teammates.
- Maps: Lower Manhattan collision geometry cleaned to prevent character clipping or stalling.
These updates, combined with the new summer skins, give squads fresh unit gains without affecting server uptime. Will the new Daredevil and Black Widow swimsuit skins shift team composition this season? Only the next round of matches will reveal the answer.
