Marvel Rivals Season 6 is almost here and will introduce an improved Hero Mastery system that will offer all-new rewards.
The next major update for NetEase Games’ online hero shooter arrives tomorrow, January 16, adding the highly anticipated multi-role Deadpool to the roster, along with a new Battle Pass, a seasonal event, and much more.
Another update comes in the form of a massive Hero Proficiency overhaul, which will increase the hero level cap and introduce more levels and more rewards.
Currently, the system only offers Lord as the highest level, but the update will allow players to progress even further until they reach Count, Colonel, Warrior, Elite, Guardian, and then the highest honor of Champion at level 70.
So you have reached the status of Lord… now what? The work doesn’t stop, Rivals! Our latest hero skill upgrade arrives with Marvel Rivals Season 6. More levels, more levels and more amazing rewards await you – it’s time to reignite the battlefield!… pic.twitter.com/5HW8lXTVe6January 14, 2026
Some of the rewards on offer range from new animated dynamic avatars, units you can spend in the store on hero skins, unstable molecules, nameplates, nameplate frames, titles, badges and much more.
This is a huge improvement over the current system, which offers a few rewards and an alternate avatar to show off your progress; I can’t wait to spend an absurd amount of time grinding more of my favorite heroes.
