What are Units in Marvel Rivals?

Units are the in-game currency in Marvel Rivals, used exclusively to purchase cosmetic items for your characters. Think stylish skins and cool sprays—purely visual enhancements that don't affect gameplay. Head to the Shop tab in the main menu to browse the available cosmetics and pick your favorites. Remember, gameplay remains balanced; no heroes or powers are locked behind a paywall.

How to Get Units in Marvel Rivals

There are two primary methods for earning Units: the Battle Pass and completing missions. Let's break them down:

Battle Pass

Even the free Battle Pass track provides a substantial amount of Units. Progress through matches unlocks sections, granting you Units along the way. Some sections also reward Lattice, another currency that can be exchanged for additional Units. While the paid Luxury track offers more, the free track is a great way to steadily accumulate Units.

Complete Missions

Season-specific missions offer a significant source of Units, along with other in-game currencies like Chrono Tokens and Lattice. Focus on these time-limited missions for the best rewards. Note that standard daily and weekly missions typically don't reward Units.

Conclusion

By diligently progressing through the Battle Pass and completing seasonal missions, you can steadily acquire Units to customize your characters in Marvel Rivals. For more Marvel Rivals guides and tips, including information on rank resets, be sure to check out The Escapist.
