Marvel Rivals Season 6 is almost here and will introduce an improved Hero Competition system that will offer completely new rewards.
The next major update for NetEase Games’ online hero shooter arrives tomorrow, January 16, and adds the long-awaited multi-role Deadpool to the roster, along with a new Battle Pass, a seasonal event, and more.
Another update comes in the form of a massive Hero Proficiency overhaul, which will increase the level cap on heroes and introduce more levels and more rewards.
Currently, the system only offers Lord as the highest level, but the update will allow players to push even further up to Count, Colonel, Warrior, Elite, Guardian, and then the top honor of Champion at level 70.
So you’ve achieved Lord status… now what? The routine doesn’t stop, rivals! Our latest Hero Competition upgrade arrives with Marvel Rivals Season 6. More levels, more levels and more amazing rewards are heading your way – it’s time to light up the battlefield again!… pic.twitter.com/5HW8lXTVe6January 14, 2026
Some of the rewards on offer range from new animated dynamic avatars, units that you can spend in the store on hero skins, unstable molecules, dog tags, dog tag frames, titles, badges and more.
It’s a big improvement over the current system, offering some rewards and an alternate avatar to show your progress; I can’t wait to spend an absurd amount of time grinding my favorite heroes even more.
