Marvel Rivals is bringing a new College Student Perk plan to the game. It’s one of the features that the devs will introduce in Marvel Rivals, starting with Season 3. We first caught a glimpse of it in Dev Vision Vol. 07. Guangguang Chen, the Creative Director of the 6v6 hero shooter, revealed that they will let college students enjoy some perks “on the house.” So far, these are specifically related to the game’s cosmetics. Let’s clear up all confusion surrounding it with this simple guide.

Players who go to college in select regions like the USA, UK, and more can use their official student email address to get a verification code. They can then confirm it to avail of some special benefits mentioned in the latter part of this article. Chen has confirmed that the team aims to expand this campaign to more regions in the future, and updates will be announced on the official Marvel Rivals website.

If your school email cannot be verified in the game, you can contact the support team regarding the issue, and they will work on adding your university to the list. The full list of regions where Marvel Rivals’ college student perks will be available has not yet been released. Stay tuned for further updates.

Benefits Available for College Students

If you have secured your spot in this program, you can expect to receive certain cosmetic benefits in Marvel Rivals. For example, students will be allowed a free trial of 10 costumes and MVP animations without having to pay for them right away. These will apply to older costumes, as is evident from the main poster for this program. However, the scheme might also be extended to upcoming cosmetics, but that has yet to be confirmed.

Another detail that remains unclear is when these 10 free trials will refresh. It could be at the start of each new season or during mid-season updates. On the other hand, they might not refresh at all. We also don’t yet know how long each MVP or costume trial will last.

Marvel Rivals has introduced this new feature to help college students save money before committing to a cosmetic purchase. It’s an interesting initiative but lacks clarity. When more information becomes available, we will make sure to update you.
