Marvel Rivals Krakoan Reels Vol. 2 is live after the August 13 patch, extending the 2026 summer event with another set of catches and rewards. The update arrived without server downtime at 09:00 UTC.

Marvel Rivals: confirmed details

The event adds rewards including Black Cat’s Coastal Cat, Winter Soldier’s Summer Soldier and Star-Lord’s Star Swimmer costumes. New beach photo spots award 100 Units after a player takes and shares a snapshot. The store rotation also includes Storm’s Sacred Skies bundle and a limited return for Lady Loki.

What changes for players

The new reel gives players another collection path through the summer event, while the photo reward is a quick one-time objective rather than a combat challenge. Most additions are cosmetic and do not change hero power. Players should distinguish event-earned outfits from separately sold store bundles.

Timing and wider context

Krakoan Reels Vol. 2 runs from August 13 through September 24 at 09:00 UTC. Lady Loki has a shorter return window ending August 28 at 02:00 UTC, and the Storm bundle is listed through September 11. Regional storefront displays may format those times differently.

The feature list and timing above reflect the developer’s announcement published on August 13, 2026. Future hotfixes can adjust balance or availability, so live values should be checked against the current client.
