TL;DR
Marvel Rivals’ October 15, 2026 patch adds new limited-time cosmetics and an event, while also fixing a Jeff the Land Shark bug, a Black Widow mobility issue, and several map collision problems.
What Changed
- Patch timing: The update is scheduled for October 15, 2026 at 09:00 UTC with no server downtime.
- Pop & Win Bullseye returns with new costumes: Players can chase Invisible Woman’s Unseen Weaver, Deadpool’s Nurse-Pool, and Mister Fantastic’s Mr. Malignance.
- Cross-Pool Promo discount: When a balloon is popped at full price in one costume pool, the balloon in the same position in the other two pools is 50% off the original price.
- New store items:
- Scarlet Witch – Chaos Weaver Chroma Azure Augury / Scarlet Spinner and Ultimate Ability VFX
- Invisible Woman – Unseen Weaver Chroma Ruby Rite / Gilded Gaze and Ultimate Ability VFX
- All Hallows’ Glow event: A Halloween event runs with missions that can earn Rocket Raccoon’s Trash King costume for free, with additional premium rewards including Scarlet Witch’s Chaos Weaver and Hela’s The Redeemed.
- Hero fixes:
- Jeff the Land Shark: Fixed a Blood Hunt mode bug where Aqua Burst could fail to expand its blast radius after repeated hits with Splish-Splash Pew Pew while using the Reservoir trait.
- Black Widow: Fixed an issue where Widow’s Bite Slam mobility could launch her an unusually long distance.
- Map fixes: Collision issues across several maps were fixed to reduce cases where heroes could get stuck in the environment.
Player Impact
The biggest gameplay changes are bug fixes rather than balance adjustments. Jeff the Land Shark’s Reservoir setup should now behave more consistently in Blood Hunt mode, and Black Widow’s mobility should no longer produce the extreme launch behavior described in the notes. Map collision fixes should also reduce environment-related stuck situations.
For players focused on cosmetics and events, the patch adds multiple limited-time offerings and a Halloween event with a free reward path through missions. The notes do not describe any broader gameplay rework or meta shift beyond the listed fixes.
