They animate during key moments in a match (like intros or victory poses), and they stay consistent no matter which skin you equip. All Season 3 Accessories (Wave 1) Here's the initial set of 8 accessories introduced with Season 3: Jeff Handbag – Emma Frost: A nod to Jeff the Land Shark, this tiny tote swings from Emma's wrist. H.E.R.B.I.E. Plush – Invisible Woman: Classic Fantastic Four vibes with this soft, floating sidekick. Alpine Plush – Winter Soldier: A tribute to Cap's goat companion from earlier seasons. MJ Plush – Spider-Man: Web-slinger meets romance. This plush adds heart to Spidey's loadout. Rocket Plush – Groot: Groot's got Rocket hanging around—literally. Groot Plush – Rocket Raccoon: A wholesome switch-up. Rocket gets a mini Groot to carry. Orochi (Venom) Plush – Psylocke: A sleek, venomous flair that ties into Psylocke's dark arc. Deadpool Plush – Jeff the Land Shark: It's Deadpool. It's Jeff. It's chaos in the cutest form possible. More waves will drop throughout Season 3, with each hero eventually getting their own exclusive. Marvel Rivals All Available Accessories How to Unlock Accessories in Marvel Rivals Season 3? No real money needed; just play the game. Earn Accessory Points: Play Quick or Competitive matches to earn Accessory Points (AP). First 200 points weekly = Double AP Bonus . Weekly cap = 700 AP. Save Up : Each accessory costs 1,350 AP. So, expect to unlock one accessory every two weeks, assuming you hit the cap. Redeem in Store : Head to the Accessory tab in the in-game store. Each wave has a limited-time rotation of accessories. Choose wisely before it resets! Why They Matter These aren't just for show. Accessories are becoming a badge of dedication—something only regular players will collect over time. Since they animate during intros and kills, they give your character a personal touch, especially during competitive streams or highlight moments. Also, NetEase has hinted that every hero will get at least one accessory eventually. So if your favorite hasn't gotten theirs yet, it's coming.
