Get Free Marvel Rivals Skins From Season 2.5's Cerebro Database Event, Combat Chest and More
Marvel Rivals season 2.5 is moving the Hellfire Gala afterparty to space -- our heroes are heading to the sentient planet Arakko to prevent Ultron's planet-exterminating plans from coming to fruition. Stopping a robot army 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 a new seasonal event that unlocks a free Hawkeye skin. The Cerebro Database Part 2 event is the debut seasonal event for Marvel Rivals season 2.5, and it's a fairly standard challenge-based event. Different rewards include chrono tokens for the battle pass, units to spend on shop skins and other odds and ends, but the big ticket item is the Hawkeye Binary Arrow skin. Outside of the latest event, there are still other ways to earn free skins right now. Whether you're getting used to the new suite of team-up abilities or you're getting in more playtime on the latest addition to the Strategist roster by beaming down enemies with Ultron, season 2.5 has introduced a slate of free skins that you can use to deck out your favorite characters. Here's what you should know about the Cerebro Database Part 2 event and the rest of the free skin lineup at the beginning of Marvel Rivals season 2.5. Get the Hawkeye Binary Arrow skin free in the Cerebro Database Part 2 event The Cerebro Database event is live now. It began with the launch of the season 2.5 patch on May 30 and ends on June 27. While this event is fairly easy, the presentation might confuse some players. As with any Marvel Rivals event, you'll need to complete challenges to earn rewards. In this event, though, each featured character (Iron Man, Black Widow, Magneto and Ultron) has nine unique challenges arranged in a 3x3 board. The new Cerebro Database event plays out just like the previous one -- including the annoying time-gated challenges. NetEase Games/Screenshot by CNET You don't need to complete all 36 challenges to receive all of the event rewards. Instead, you need to complete enough challenges to make three separate horizontal, vertical or diagonal lines on all four boards to finish the event. Basically, you're playing tic-tac-toe to quickly make three lines on all of the boards to earn your rewards as efficiently as possible. Like most Marvel Rivals events, several characters' boards are time-gated, which means that the most enterprising players will only be able to unlock the Hawkeye Binary Arrow skin starting on June 11. Until then, you can earn Chrono Tokens, units, sprays and gallery pages. The Combat Chest is a new type of battle pass -- it's a more traditional experience-based progression system. NetEase Games/Screenshot by CNET Get the Mister Fantastic Future Foundation skin during the first ever Combat Chest event A new type of experience-based battle pass also launched at the beginning of season 2.5. The Combat Chest is a smaller, half-season battle pass that rewards consistent playtime over challenge completion. The free track contains one costume, while the premium Combat Chest (which costs 690 Lattice, or roughly $7) has two additional costume rewards. It contains 24 reward tiers and each reward tier requires 1,800 experience points to unlock. Players can earn a maximum of 7,200 experience points every day, so it's theoretically possible to earn every Combat Chest reward in six days. The free Mister Fantastic Future Foundation skin is on tier 18 of the Combat Chest so it will take the most enterprising players four days to unlock the new addition to the body-bending hero's wardrobe. Premium skin rewards include Storm Ultimate Wind-Rider on tier 6 and Magneto Binary Sword on tier 24 of the Combat Chest. The first version of this shortened alternate battle pass will disappear July 11 at the end of season 2 but any players who purchase the premium version can continue unlocking any remaining tiers after that date. How can I get free skins during Marvel Rivals season 2.5? Players who link their Twitch account to their Marvel Rivals account right now can nab a free Emma Frost skin. But if you only care about rewards you can earn in-game, a different Emma Frost skin and an Ultron skin are available by progressing through the competitive ladder and new Iron Fist and Magik looks are available free on the season 2 battle pass. The immortal Iron Fist goes toe-to-toe with Doctor Strange in his new free battle pass skin. NetEase Games What Marvel Rivals skins are available free right now?

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 Cerebro Database include free skins as a completion reward.

Alan Alda Pays Tribute To 11-Year ‘M*A*S*H' Co-Star Loretta Swit: 'Supremely Talented Actor'
Alan Alda, who starred on CBS' long-running comedy series M*A*S*H alongside Loretta Swit, spoke out Friday after the news of Swit's death at age 87. Swit, who played Major Margaret 'Hot Lips' Houlihan on all 11 seasons of M*A*S*H from 1972-1983, died at her home in New York City at age 87. More from Deadline Loretta Swit Dies: 'M*A*S*H' Emmy Winner Who Played 'Hot Lips' Houlihan Was 87 2025 Deaths Photo Gallery: Hollywood & Media Obituaries Patrick Adiarte Dies: 'M*A*S*H' Actor Was 82 Alda played Capt. Benjamin Franklin 'Hawkeye' Pierce also for the full run of the 14-time Emmy-winning show, which was based on Robert Altman's 1970 feature film that starred Elliott Gould as Hawkeye and Sally Kellerman as Hot Lips, the head nurse at the U.S. Mobile Army Surgical Hospital near the front lines of the Korean War. 'Loretta was a supremely talented actor,' he posted on X. 'She deserved all her 10 Emmy nominations and her 2 wins. But more than acting her part, she created it. She worked hard In showing the writing staff how they could turn the character from a one joke sexist stereotype into a real person — with real feelings and ambitions. We celebrated the day the script came out listing her character not as Hot Lips, but as Margaret. Loretta made the most of her time here.' Swit and Alda appeared in all 251 episodes of M*A*S*H including the 2½-hour series finale that aired in February 1983. It remains the most-watched episode of series TV in history, with more than 105 million viewers and mind-boggling 60.2 rating/77 share. Loretta was a supremely talented actor.

Five Great Reads: reporting from Israel and Palestine, Alan Alda, and the boy who came back
Happy Saturday! Ted Talks are apparently getting shorter because of our attention spans, so I'd better make this brief. I'm here to take you through the good stuff from the week – and ever so quickly spare a moment for Lorde, who crashed a Lorde-themed-party here in Sydney. There are many interesting things the US actor, director and writer Alan Alda shares in his G2 interview with Simon Hattenstone – and being married for 68 years (in a divorce-ridden industry) is just one of them. The Four Seasons: the 80-year-old is back in the spotlight thanks to a Tina Fey revamp of his 1981 movie, which he marvels at. Record for a scripted TV series: Alda is best known for his role as Hawkeye in M*A*S*H. Its final episode was watched by 106 million people in the US, 'still a record for a scripted TV series', Hattenstone writes. How long will it take to read: six minutes. After four years reporting from Israel and Palestine, Bethan McKernan is returning to the UK. The Guardian correspondent reveals the grief, horror and hope that defined her time there, including in the immediate aftermath of the 7 October 2023 attacks – when 'nothing was clear at that point except that many, many more people were going to die'. The article that never was written: Three days before 7 October, McKernan was in Gaza to interview people about 'the revival of beekeeping', when she spotted what looked like a Hamas military drill in the distance. The story that ended up being covered: 'No one with an internet connection can say they don't know the truth of what has happened in Israel and Palestine over the past 18 months,' McKernan writes. How long will it take to read: six minutes. I remember the first time I encountered Alexa. I was in high school, and my friend was cooking us breakfast. We asked the Amazon device for a banana pancakes recipe. Instead, rather cheekily, Alexa played Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson. But what would happen if you asked the same device (which has significantly improved since my high school days): 'what do you know about us?' It's a question Jeremy Ettinghausen put to his Alexa, which has been his family's on-call vet, DJ, teacher, parent and therapist for years. 'Our requests ranged from prosaic to troubling and downright bizarre – there was very little we didn't ask Alexa' – Jeremy Ettinghausen How long will it take to read: six minutes.

College football alters Hall of Fame criteria, opens Kirk Ferentz door
College football alters Hall of Fame criteria, opens Kirk Ferentz door The National Football Foundation, in consultation with the American Football Coaches Association, NFF Honors Court, and NFF Awards Committee, has adjusted the eligibility criteria for coaches entering the NFF College Football Hall of Fame. Beginning with the Class of 2027,… — National Football Foundation (@NFFNetwork) May 29, 2025 The National Football Foundation announced an adjustment to its NFF College Football Hall of Fame criteria on Thursday. The NFF College Football Hall of Fame lowered its minimum career winning percentage threshold for coaching eligibility from .600 to .595. This change will go into effect beginning with the 2027 NFF College Football Hall of Fame ballot. It's a notable development in Iowa City, too. Longtime Iowa head football coach Kirk Ferentz has sat just below the .600 minimum career winning percentage threshold for some time. After last season's 8-5 (6-3 Big Ten) finish, Ferentz's coaching mark at Iowa across 26 seasons sits at 204-124 (128-88 Big Ten). That's a .622 winning percentage with the Hawkeyes. There's just one problem. Ferentz's three-year mark in his first head coaching stint at Maine was 12-21 from 1990-92. Those three seasons bring Ferentz's overall collegiate head coaching record to 216-145. Or, a .598 winning percentage. With this adjustment, Ferentz would now be eligible for the NFF College Football Hall of Fame upon retirement. It's exciting news for the all-time winningest Hawkeye that his runway to the NFF College Football Hall of Fame has been cleared for takeoff. The adjustment also presents some interesting questions for Iowa, too. Does this alter Ferentz's retirement timeline in any way, shape or form? With the NFF College Football Hall of Fame roadblock now cleared, could Ferentz retire after the 2025 season? An Iowa finish of 7-6 or better in the 2025 season would keep Ferentz above the new minimum career winning percentage threshold of .595 for coaching eligibility. If Iowa rips off a particularly successful 2025 season or pair of seasons in 2025 and 2026, does that free Ferentz up to coach out the remainder of his contract through the 2029 season without the looming fear of dipping below that Hall of Fame threshold? It's interesting to consider. All of the other eligibility requirements remain unchanged. To be considered for the NFF College Football Hall of Fame, coaches must have served as a head coach for a minimum of 10 seasons and must have coached at least 100 games. Coaches become eligible for consideration three full seasons after retirement or immediately following retirement if they are at least 70 years of age. Active coaches become eligible upon reaching the age of 75. Beyond Ferentz, late Texas Tech, Washington State and Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach is now eligible for the Hall of Fame. Former Oklahoma State, LSU and Kansas head coach Les Miles and former Pitt, Texas A&M and Mississippi State head coach Jackie Sherrill are now eligible as well. "It's the only sane thing to do," Leach's mentor, Hal Mumme, told ESPN. "Why is 60% the magic number? I mean, not everybody gets to coach at Notre Dame or Texas or something. Throw the rule out and vote people in on merit." Among other active head coaches, West Virginia's Rich Rodriguez owns a .596 winning percentage.
