All Free Marvel Rivals Skins and How to Get Them for July 2025
Stopping one symbiote is tough enough. Fighting off an army of them is going to require a whole new wardrobe's worth of battle gear. Luckily for you, there are many ways to unlock some free skins in the hit hero shooter right now -- including the Milano Repair Logs event that evens the odds with a free Storm Symbiote Storm skin.
Outside of the latest event, there are still other ways to earn free skins right now. Whether you're getting used to Phoenix's dense set of abilities or you're still getting used to the ever-shifting landscape of team-up moves, season 3 has introduced a slate of free skins that you can use to deck out your favorite characters.
Here's what you need to know about the Milano Repair Logs event, current Twitch drops and the Marvel Rivals season 3 battle pass.

Get the Storm Symbiote Storm skin during the Milano Repair Logs event
The Milano Repair Logs event is a simple challenge-based event launched at the beginning of season 3. It's similar to the Cerebro Database events from season 2, but instead of playing a game of tic-tac-toe, you just have to complete every objective presented to you.
There are seven repair logs to complete, with each repair log containing three separate challenges. The challenge rewards are pretty solid this time around -- there are some character-based sprays, profile pics and other filler, but you can also earn a handful of units and hundreds of Chrono Tokens that will give you an early boost in completing the season 3 battle pass.
You unlock new repair logs by completing the previous ones, so there's no skipping out on challenges that don't fit your usual play style. Once you complete all seven repair logs, you automatically unlock the free Storm Symbiote Storm skin for your outfit wardrobe. The Milano Repair Logs event lasts until Aug. 8, so you'll want to unlock the Storm skin before then.
If you want to complete your symbiote skin collection, there are a smattering of Venom-themed skins for other characters on the battle pass (including two skins on the free track). There are also plenty of Venom- and Phoenix-themed skins in the in-game shop if you've collected enough units to snatch up an incoming bundle or two.
How can I get free skins during Marvel Rivals season 3?
Players who link their Twitch account to their Marvel Rivals account can nab a free Hawkeye skin.
But if you only care about rewards you can earn in-game, a Phoenix skin is available by progressing through the competitive ladder and new looks for Groot and Rocket Raccoon are available for free on the season 3 battle pass.

How can I get more free Marvel Rivals skins?

You can also earn skins through regularly playing the game, as a free skin is frequently awarded with the completion of seasonal events. Players who reach gold rank or higher in competition also receive a free skin as a reward for their performance. Live events like season 2's Cerebro Database and the current Milano Repair Logs challenge include free skins as a completion reward.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds journeys into zombieland
What does a zombie represent? Unlike werewolves, vampires, or Frankensteins, zombie stories are usually more about the humans living through them than the monsters themselves. Your classic zombie fable generally settles on the idea that it's the living who are the real monsters, not the living dead. But this week's episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds finds a slightly different metaphor to play around with. Here, the 'moss zombies' of the abandoned planet Kenfori serve as a metaphor for the past (literally) coming back to haunt the crew of the Enterprise. Even when our heroes think they've put something behind them, it turns out it can still roar back to life. That's especially true for Dr. M'Benga. Last season introduced the idea that the kindly doctor was also a brutal mercenary in the Klingon War—a history he was forced to confront when self-aggrandizing Klingon defector Ambassador Dak'Rah stopped by the Enterprise for an official visit in 'Under The Cloak Of War.' That episode ended with M'Benga killing Dak'Rah, an act he'd hoped would bring closure to his wartime experience. This week, however, Dak'Rah's daughter B'itha (Christine Horn) shows up demanding justice. (She's not mad her turncoat dad is dead, just disgraced because she didn't get to kill him herself.) Sometimes there are experiences that won't stay buried, no matter how hard we try. In that way, zombies are a fitting metaphor for M'Benga—and for Ortegas and Captain Batel, who are also grappling with their own haunting experiences that refuse to die. But, metaphors aside, do zombies feel like they have a place in the Star Trek universe? I'm not so sure. Though it's delightful to have Captain Pike openly call them 'the z-word' rather than dodge the term like The Walking Dead and 28 Days Later have done, falling back on such a classic monster feels a little cheap for a show about strange new worlds. I can't exactly explain why zombies don't feel Star Trek-y to me while godlike imps, Alien-homages, and even musical episodes do. But that is my gut reaction. Still, the upside of using familiar monsters like zombies is that there's more room for other stuff because you don't have to explain the rules of the villain-of-the-week. And though I'd say 'Shuttle To Kenfori' is more about revisiting the beats of 'Under The Cloak Of War' than adding something new to the conversation, it does so with a sense of style and conviction that helps paper over the weak spots. Or maybe it's just that it's so fun to spend time with these characters and this cast that even when I can see an episode's flaws, I usually still have an enjoyable time watching it. The best thing about 'Shuttle To Kenfori' is that it continues the ensemble vibes of the two-episode premiere. That starts in sickbay, where Batel is taken after collapsing in Pike's quarters. Though she'd been planning to take up a new Starfleet commission, it turns out her Gorn-related illness is back with a vengeance. M'Benga, Spock, and Chapel quickly get creative with their treatment plan. Her best chance is a special Chimera flower known for its 'biological uniqueness' (LOL) and ability to 'move invasive molecules through cell membranes.' The trouble is, the flower only grows on the planet Kenfori, which just happens to be in a restricted no-fly zone right on the border of disputed Klingon territory. To take a trip there would violate multiple treaties—so Pike decides that he and M'Benga will take a shuttle on an off-the-books mission that will hopefully go unnoticed by the Klingons. (Naturally, it doesn't.) While Pike and M'Benga get the bulk of the screen time this week, 'Shuttle To Kenfori' makes a point to keep checking back in on the Enterprise and the characters there too. Little moments like our new nurse (does he have a name yet?) giving Batel pain meds or La'An worrying about Ortegas ensure those characters still feel active even if they don't actually have much to do. Spock, meanwhile, gets woven into Batel's story after he mind melds to help alleviate her pain and accidentally spots a monstrous vision that briefly turns him violent. And Scotty provides some classic comic relief as an artificial-gravity mishap sends the crew floating. Ortegas and Una are the only bridge crew with actual arcs here. Ortegas' willingness to defy orders and provoke a Klingon battle cruiser earns her a two-week suspension from Number One. But the way this episode ensures we get at least a little face time with all of the main players is a great example of how Strange New Worlds is carrying on the ensemble legacy of the '90s Trek shows in a way Discovery and, honestly, even Enterprise never really did. There's nothing like a ready room debate to evoke The Next Generation in the best way. Speaking of character work, this episode's biggest new addition doesn't have anything to do with the Klingons or the Gorn or even the zombies. It's the (slight) retconning of Pike and M'Benga's relationship. During their away mission, the two banter about past missions and joke about his three(!!) ex-wives (and one annulment) in a way that takes them beyond just longtime colleagues and into true old-friends territory. It's a chummy connection that Anson Mount and Babs Olusanmokun sell really well. Where the first season of Strange New Worlds sometimes lazily fell back on making Pike and Spock the heart of the show à la Kirk and Spock in the original series, I like how these past two seasons have consciously tried to mix it up and find new dynamics too. When Pike accepted M'Benga's story about Dak'Rah last season, it felt like a captain dealing with a crewmember. Here he gets to reassure him as a friend. In fact, this whole episode is a chance to square M'Benga the Healer with M'Benga the Killer. As he puts it when B'itha demands the truth, 'A mass murderer gave me the opportunity to kill him and I did, willingly… Was that dishonorable? I don't know. But there was justice.' It's an explicit confirmation of what happened during the purposefully veiled scene in 'Under The Cloak Of War.' But as Pike reminds him, being a flawed man isn't the same thing as being a monster. Of course, you could also argue that this episode retcons in the Pike/M'Benga friendship specifically, so it doesn't have to grapple with how a Starfleet captain should deal with the reveal that their doctor committed an extrajudicial execution of a political ambassador—which feels like it would be a big deal for the honor-bond Federation. If Discovery was sometimes too obsessed with the rules and regulations of Starfleet, Strange New Worlds can be a little too quick to dodge an interesting moral debate in favor of a 'power of friendship' ending. Indeed, having both Pike and, to some degree, B'itha absolve M'Benga of his guilt over killing Dak'Rah risks cheapening the intentional emotional ambiguity of 'Under The Cloak Of War.' The more interesting wrinkle is how M'Benga's time in the Klingon War has given him an understanding of Klingon culture in a way that someone like Pike doesn't have in this era of Trek history. M'Benga agrees to B'itha's ritual combat (even if he ultimately decides not to kill her) and he understands what it means for her to sacrifice herself in order to earn a noble death worthy of Sto'Vo'Kor. That's an interesting perspective for a Starfleet officer to have in an era where Klingons are still very much 'the bad guys.' The other big swing 'Shuttle To Kenfori' takes is to give even more dramatic weight to Pike and Batel's relationship—a romance that always feels kind of grafted onto the series even though, to be fair, the pilot did open on their pairing. Here it turns out she's been hiding the swiftness of her impending death and her plan to turn herself into a human-Gorn hybrid because she thought Pike would make it all about himself. And she's right: That's exactly what he does—at least before taking her into his arms as they both admit they're scared. It's a bit of an odd scene to end on, mostly because this episode starts with Batel, then pivots to M'Benga, and then pivots back to Marie without really drawing any thematic parallels between the two. I guess you could say they're both afraid of becoming monsters or they both have to learn to trust Pike with their dark secrets in order to find peace. But I'm not sure 'Shuttle To Kenfori' totally weaves its disparate ideas together in the end. Still, I'm interested to see what will happen when Batel goes half-Gorn (or whatever that flower is going to do) and how the season will pick up on the Ortegas thread too. After last week's strong two-episode premiere, 'Shuttle To Kenfori' occasionally feels like a bit of a detour. But it keeps this season alive—and sometimes alive is all you need in a zombie story. Stray observations • I was trying to figure out if this episode's title is a play on something. Maybe the famed South Korean zombie movie Train To Busan? • I started rewatching Discovery after revisiting the first two seasons of Strange New Worlds and I'm so glad this show returned to the '90s Klingon look we know and love rather than the truly terrible revamp of Voq & co. • I also love the depiction of the Klingon shuttle, which is even more bird-like than their famed birds of prey. • I'm not sure the hair department has ever quite nailed the right look for Rebecca Romijn. And while it doesn't this week either (the braids look too much like a hat), I'm glad to see it continue to experiment! • It turns out B'itha was able to plant a tracker on M'Benga after he ate the olive on a drink a R'ongovian offered him. What a scheme. • Also, apologies if I'm getting the spelling of B'itha's name wrong. My screeners don't come with subtitles so I'm taking my best stab at Klingon there! • In case you need more of me writing about plant-related zombies, I recapped this most recent season of The Last Of Us too.

Marvel is Making Big, Cosmic Moves in Its Comics
Things are always happening in the Marvel Universe, and a lot's been happening as of late. Doctor Doom's taken over the planet and there's been some big assassinations up in space, and they're both leading to some new status quo changes over the rest of 2025 and into 2026. At its various panels across San Diego Comic-Con, the publisher gave details on what's to come in the aftermath of its two big, current events, Imperial and One World Under Doom. In the pages of Doom's final issue in November, the evil Doctor will make sure to turn his victory over Earth's heroes into a fixed point in time, which also means his defeat is just as fixed, too. This will lead us into what looks like a hunt for the new Sorcerer Supreme since Doom's apparently vacated the spot. Our candidates include the likes of Storm, Nico Minoru, and Captain Marvel, and the succession process will begin in December. Space-wise, Imperial will end its four-part story in October. In its wake is a number of new cosmic-focused books, two of which were fully revealed: Planet She-Hulk from Stephanie Phillips and Aaron Kuder picks up with Jess still stuck on Sakaar and running things after promising to rule over it in Hulk's absence. And in Nova: Centurion, Jed McKay and Álvaro López pick up with Richard Rider as a drifter holding a sentient repository of the now extinct Xandarians. That repository requires a lot of energy and money, and that means Rich has to make some cash while reeling from knowing the 'terrible lie that the new Galactic Union was built upon.' Both books will be followed by Black Panther: Intergalactic in December, then Exiles and Imperial Guardians in winter 2026. The premises and creative teams for those will be revealed in the coming months. Over in Ultimate Marvel, that universe's heroes will see their first big event in Ultimate Endgame. Announced prior to SDCC, the five-issue miniseries Deniz Camp, Jonas Scharf, and other artists sees the Maker (Reed Richards) finally come out of his prison to find the heroes that've cropped up in his absence. Now that he's freed, it falls to the Ultimates, Spider-Man, Black Panther, Mei, and Wolverine to gather thier allies and fight for their world. During the Ultimate Marvel panel, Camp said the event 'has a bigger impact than most people will know' on the main and Ultimate universes, and further likened it to Crisis on Infinite Earths before Jonathan Hickman cheekily corrected him with Secret Wars. Before Ultimate Endgame begins on New Year's Eve, Hickman and Marco Checchetto's Ultimate Spider-Man will wrap after a two-year run on Christmas Eve. (The other books, such as Ultimate Black Panther and Ultimate X-Men, don't have final issues set at time of writing.) However, this isn't the complete end, as Marvel's promised that book will 'create promising roadmaps for future storytelling.' What awaits the Ultimate universe after things go down in Endgame will have to wait until 2026 draws closer. Want more io9 news?

'Project Hail Mary' sends Ryan Gosling, and Comic-Con, into outer space
Comic-Con attendees got their first glimpse Saturday at the new sci-fi space thriller "Project Hail Mary," starring Ryan Gosling, ahead of its arrival in US theaters in March 2026. Gosling was joined on a convention panel by directing duo Christopher Miller and Phil Lord, as well as screenwriter Drew Goddard and book author Andy Weir -- whose previous novel "The Martian" was also turned into an Oscar-nominated film starring Matt Damon. Based on Weir's 2021 book of the same title, "Project Hail Mary" follows astronaut Ryland Grace (Gosling), a science teacher waking up to learn he was recruited for a space mission to save Earth from an existential solar threat. Gosling described his character as "a scared guy who has to do something impossible." "I knew it would be brilliant, because it's Andy [Weir]," Gosling told the crowd. "It took me places I've never been. It showed me things I had never seen. It was as heartbreaking as it was funny and I was... not just blown away, but also overwhelmed." Weir for his part said it was "so cool" to see his book come to life and complimented Gosling for giving "many layers to this character I made up." Lord and Miller, the Oscar-winning duo behind the "Spider-Verse" Spider-Man animated films, talked about the challenges of shooting a "crazy ambitious" film which takes place inside a spaceship for the most part. "We had to build an entire spaceship in two modes of gravity, and then we built this entire massive tunnel at scale," Miller said. "This is insane, to build a tunnel that was like 100 feet (30 meters) long, filled up an entire stage." The event also showcased various clips from the film, receiving a positive response from fans, who noted the bond formed between Gosling's character and an alien named Rocky. "The relationship between these two characters is the heart of the movie," Miller said. "I loved it," attendee April Rodriguez, who also read the book, gushed about the film. "I just never, like, envisioned it that way. So that was pretty cool." - Star Trek - Comic-Con, which bring some 130,000 fans for the convention in San Diego, California, welcomed the Star Trek universe to the main stage earlier in the day Saturday to showcase its upcoming releases. Thousands of fans filled the hall to watch exclusive footage from the fourth season of "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" before it premieres on Paramount+. One clip showed Captain Christopher Pike played by Anson Mount in an entire episode where the cast is depicted like puppets from Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Fans were also offered a first look of a new Star Trek series, dubbed "Star Trek: Starfleet Academy" starring Holly Hunter. Hunter plays Nahla Ake, the academy's chancellor and captain of the USS Athena, who in a clip shown at Comic-Con welcomes a new class of cadets. "It was really interesting to get the offer to be the captain, but then also to combine that with being the chancellor," Hunter said. "The captain is there to analyze in emergency situations, and then to delegate. And the chancellor is there to guide, to collaborate and to have tremendous empathy. "It was just a wonderful combination of things," she added. Comic-Con continues on Sunday for its final day of events. pr/jgc/aks
