Marvel Rivals Season 6 is almost here and will introduce an upgraded Hero Proficiency system that will offer brand new rewards.
The next big update for NetEase Games’ online hero shooter arrives tomorrow, January 16, adding the long-awaited multi-role Deadpool to the roster, along with a new Battle Pass, seasonal event and more.
Another update comes in the form of a massive Hero Proficiency overhaul, which will increase the level cap for heroes and introduce more levels and more rewards.
Currently, the system only offers Lord as the highest level, but the update will allow players to grind even more until they reach Count, Colonel, Warrior, Elite, Guardian, and then the top honor of Champion at level 70.
So you’ve reached Lord status… now what? The slide doesn’t stop, rivals! Our latest Hero Proficiency Upgrade arrives with Season 6 of Marvel Rivals. More levels, more levels and more incredible rewards are coming your way – it’s time to fire up the battlefield again!… pic.twitter.com/5HW8lXTVe614 January 2026
Some of the rewards offered range from new animated dynamic avatars, units that you can use in the store on hero skins, unstable molecules, name tags, name plate frames, titles, badges and more.
It’s a huge improvement over the current system, which offers a few rewards and an alternate avatar to show your progress; I can’t wait to spend an absurd amount of time further grinding my favorite heroes.
