What to Finish Before Marvel Rivals Season 11

Marvel Rivals Season 11, Doomsday, is nearly here. If you are still collecting Halloween rewards, check your progress first. Some activities end on the day of the update, while the Avengers: Endgame event continues for longer.

The new season also introduces Nightcrawler, a battle pass, and a seasonal event. Here is what to finish before the update and what to expect afterward.

When Does Season 11 Start?

The update begins on November 13, 2026, at 09:00 UTC. Maintenance is expected to last approximately two hours.

Maintenance may take longer than expected, so wait for the servers to reopen before planning your first match. If you are playing with friends, make sure everyone has finished downloading the update.

Finish These Limited-Time Activities First

Activity	Deadline
Halloween Pop & Win costume pools	November 13, 02:00 UTC
All Hallows' Glow	November 13, 09:00 UTC
Avengers: Endgame event	November 26, 09:00 UTC

If you still want Rocket Raccoon’s free Trash King costume, open the All Hallows' Glow event page and check your remaining missions. The Pop & Win costume pools close earlier and are separate from the event missions.

Once you complete a mission, check that you have claimed its reward. Before your last session, review the in-game timer and requirements in case anything has changed.

It is also worth checking your battle pass and Competitive rewards. They may not share the same deadline as the Halloween events, so review their progress and claim conditions separately.

The Endgame Event Runs Longer, but Check Its Schedule

The Path to Doomsday: Avengers: Endgame event runs until November 26 at 09:00 UTC. Participating gives players a chance to earn Captain America’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier costume and other rewards for free.

The battle mode is not available around the clock. It opens during scheduled sessions, so check the next session in-game before arranging a group.

There are also two separate activities in Times Square:

• Watch an Avengers: Endgame clip in the screening area for two consecutive minutes to receive an exclusive gallery card.
• Take a photo with an NPC at the event photo wall outside the Avengers Gift Shop to receive 100 Units.

These rewards do not require the battle mode to be open, so you can pick them up while waiting for the next session.

What’s New in Season 11?

Season 11, Doomsday, introduces:

• New hero: Nightcrawler. Take some time after the update to learn his movement and abilities.
• New battle pass: The Incursion. The pass includes ten new costumes.
• Seasonal event: The Acts of Kurt Wagner. Join Nightcrawler in a new seasonal story.
• Competitive reward: The Season 11.0 Gold-rank costume is Nightcrawler: Hope Soared.
• Twitch Drops: A new campaign begins on November 13 at 12:00 UTC.

If you play Competitive, check the changes to your regular heroes and team compositions after the update. For rank reset and reward requirements, follow the latest in-game and official information.

What to Do Once the Update Is Live?

After maintenance, finish downloading the update through Steam, the Epic Games Store, or your console platform. If you are playing with friends, make sure their clients are updated too.

Before taking Nightcrawler into Competitive, try his movement and abilities in the practice range or a casual match. If your usual heroes or team composition have changed, a few practice games can also help your group adjust.

If the servers are open but you experience high ping or connection fluctuations, pause background downloads and check your current server region.
