NetEase released patch 1.71/1.000.106 for Marvel Rivals on September 3, bringing new cosmetic bundles and targeted bug fixes to the game. This update matters because it introduces X-Men '97 Season 2 content and resolves physics issues that previously affected character animations. Players can now access these items and experience smoother visuals in the upcoming season.
NetEase releases minor update with new store items and animation fixes
The patch adds several new store items, including the Ultron B-Boy Prime Bundle, the Rogue X-Men '97 Season 2 Bundle, and the Gambit X-Men '97 Season 2 Bundle. NetEase confirmed that the Rogue and Gambit bundles do not currently include the MVP item. Players who purchase these bundles will receive the MVP automatically once the MVP update goes live.
NetEase also released the X-Men '97 Season 2 Emoji Bundle and the Ultron B-Boy Prime Chroma Caramel Crew/Mustard Beat and Ultimate Ability VFX. The store availability for these items begins on September 4th, 2026, at 2:00:00 UTC. These cosmetic additions allow players to customize their characters with new visual effects and emotes.
Beyond new store items, the patch includes specific cosmetic changes and bug fixes. Developers removed the cape option from the Cyclops Elegant Eye costume. They also added Jubilee support to the Take a Seat Emote. A physics bug that prevented Psylocke's scarf from remaining dynamic on the Hellfire Bay Beach map has been fixed.
We looked at the last Marvel Rivals update earlier while tracking similar balance and stability themes in recent patches. This latest release continues that trend by addressing animation glitches and expanding the cosmetic store. The changes are available globally starting September 4th, 2026, at 2:00:00 UTC.
