Marvel Rivals Version 20250717 Drops Summer Event and Character Fixes

Marvel Rivals version 20250717 arrives on July 17, 2025, bringing the Summer Special event, new store bundles, and key bug fixes for characters and maps without requiring server downtime.

Marvel Rivals deploys update v20250717 on July 17, 2025, at 9:00 AM UTC with zero server downtime. This patch introduces a multi-week seasonal event, cosmetic bundles, and fixes for character interactions and map geometry.

Summer Special Event and Store Additions

The Summer Special event runs from July 17, 2025, to August 15, 2025. Players battle to earn XP and unlock free rewards, including the Thor - Worthy Waves costume. Purchasing the Summer Special Premium Edition grants permanent access to unlock additional rewards like The Thing - Sunshine Thing and Luna Snow - Cool Summer costumes. In-store arrivals launching July 18, 2025, feature limited-time bundles for Psylocke and Loki, new costume colors for Psylocke, Luna Snow, Thor, and Loki, plus custom ability visual effects for Psylocke's Breezy Butterfly and Luna Snow's Cool Summer ultimate abilities.

Hero Fixes and Practice Adjustments

The patch addresses specific character interactions, including a bug where Monster Hulk's ultimate ability displayed incorrectly if the target stood on a portal during the grab animation. Magneto's Metallic Curtain now successfully blocks Cloak's Terror Cape without suffering negative effects. Additionally, players can now earn Accessory Points through Practice VS. AI matches.

Platform and Map Stability

All platforms receive a fix for an issue where modifying keyboard and controller keybinds could affect each other under certain conditions. Terrain issues causing characters to become stuck or clip through odd locations are resolved, alongside fixes for floating broken objects and collision errors.

Why this patch matters

Version 20250717 delivers seasonal cosmetics and targeted bug fixes rather than sweeping balance changes.
