When the second half of the season commences after February 21, 2025, 8 AM UTC, no ranks will be reset in Marvel Rivals. This means that players will retain their rank scores and won't be set back in their climbing journey.
In Dev Talk Vol.11, the developers mentioned that players who complete 10 Competitive matches and achieve the Gold rank by the conclusion of the season will earn a new Gold rank costume and a new selection of Crests of Honor. This skin reward is in addition to the Blood Shield Invisible Woman that will be awarded after the first half.
As of now, it is not confirmed which character will receive the next Gold rank costume. However, we can speculate that it will be for a character with a high pick rate or one that is a popular unit across all ranks. This is evident from games like Rainbow Six Siege that follow a similar ranked reward system for ranks above Gold and offer skins for high pick rate operators.
Additionally, new and distinct designs for Grandmaster, Celestial, Eternity, and One Above All Crests of Honor will be available.
