Marvel Rivals is one of the most successful third-person shooter games of 2024. NetEase Games has decided to celebrate the anniversary of the Closed Alpha test of the game with a limited time event and Season 0 Battle Pass. This time players can purchase the Battle Pass to prevent it from expiring.
It’s the anniversary of Marvel Rivals. Well, not the official version of the game, but the Closed Alpha Test. Generally developers never celebrate playtest anniversaries, but NetEase Games has taken this opportunity to fulfill one of the most frequently placed demands of the community. The latest limited-time event, Galacta’s Gift, has brought back the Season 0 Battle Pass.
This event starts on May 15, 2025, and the Battle Pass will be available to purchase from the beginning. So, players who have missed the chance to unlock items from the Battle Pass previously can do it again by purchasing it between May 15, 2:00 A.M. PDT, and May 29. Once purchased, this Battle Pass won’t expire, and players can take their time to unlock the rewards.
Let’s dive into the event and see what the Battle Pass is offering to players:
The Season 0 Battle Pass is one of the most popular Battle Passes that Marvel Rivals ever featured. Since it expired, fans have been asking for its return, and NetEase Games granted their wish in Season 2. When players had been anticipating the Season 2 mid-season update, they received the Season 0 Battle Pass with five pages full of rewards.
This Battle Pass features all the rewards from the original pass. The 29 rewards that players can unlock include.

The Season 0 Battle Pass is now available at a price of 590 Lattice. This is highly affordable for almost everyone. The best part is, once purchased, players can unlock these rewards at their pace. There won’t be any time constraints anymore.
Aside from the Season 0 Battle Pass, the Galacta's Gift event has brought a range of free in-game rewards for Marvel Rivals fans. This reward range includes items like nameplates, sprays, and Chrono Shield Cards, etc. The most interesting part is that players can earn these rewards through the regular gameplay. There’s no need for players to join any additional activity.
One of the highlights of the event is the Costume Coins. This limited-time event offers free Costume Coins to players that they can redeem to get debut costumes for any of the 33 heroes featured in Season 0. Precisely, through this event, NetEase Games has enhanced the accessibility of exclusive content. Regardless of whether players purchase the Season 0 Battle Pass or not, they can access exclusive cosmetics.
The reintroduction of Season 0 Battle Pass and its combination with the Galacta’s Gift event has increased the popularity of the game further. This marks a significant milestone in the journey of Marvel Rivals. This not only shows how dedicated the team is, but also it highlights that NetEase Games listens to player demands.
Additionally, the return of the Season 0 Battle Pass opens the possibility of other Battle Passes making their return after two seasons. In that case, once a Battle Pass expires, players shouldn’t get disappointed for not unlocking all the rewards.
