Marvel Rivals is receiving its Version 20260903 update on September 3, with the official notes scheduling the patch for 09:00 UTC. The developer says the rollout does not require server downtime, so players should be able to update the game and return without a maintenance window.
The patch is focused on new store content and a short list of customization and visual fixes rather than hero balance changes. The official Marvel Rivals patch notes list new bundles for Ultron, Rogue, and Gambit, expanded emote support for Jubilee, a free cape option for one Cyclops costume, and a map-specific fix affecting Psylocke.
When does the Marvel Rivals September 3 patch launch?
The Version 20260903 patch was scheduled to deploy on September 3 at 09:00 UTC. According to the official announcement, there is no server downtime attached to the update. Players may still need to download the patch through their platform before re-entering the game.
The patch time and the store-content time are separate. The game update is scheduled for September 3 at 09:00 UTC, while the listed bundles and cosmetics become available on September 4 at 02:00 UTC. Players who do not see the new store items immediately after installing the patch should therefore wait for the later store rollout. The notes do not provide regional prices or an end date for those offers.
The notes do not announce hero buffs, nerfs, or other competitive balance adjustments. This is a smaller content-and-fixes update, and the official list is narrow enough that players should not expect an unlisted balance pass.
Which new bundles are coming to the store?
The update prepares five new store additions. Ultron receives the B-Boy Prime Bundle, while Rogue and Gambit each receive an X-Men ’97 Season 2 Bundle. An X-Men ’97 Season 2 Emoji Bundle is also listed.
Ultron additionally gets the B-Boy Prime Chroma Caramel Crew/Mustard Beat and Ultimate Ability VFX. The announcement schedules this store content for September 4 at 02:00 UTC, which is separate from the patch deployment time.
Rogue’s and Gambit’s bundles do not initially include their MVP animations. The notes say players who already own the complete bundle will receive the relevant MVP automatically and at no additional cost once that part of the update becomes available.
What changes for Cyclops and Jubilee?
Cyclops receives a free customization option for the Elegant Eye costume. The option is called “Cape – Removed” and lets players use the costume without its cape.
The Take a Seat emote also gains support for Jubilee. The patch notes do not list additional emote compatibility changes for other heroes.
Which bug does the patch fix?
The fixes section contains one specific correction. On the Hellfire Bay Beach map, Psylocke’s scarf could stop moving dynamically while she was using the swing in her default costume. The update restores the scarf’s movement in that situation.
No additional crash, matchmaking, map, or performance fixes are itemized in the September 3 notes. That makes the store rollout, the Cyclops and Jubilee customization changes, and the Psylocke scarf correction the complete set of changes described in the official announcement.
