The Spring Festival has launched in Marvel Rivals, bringing a host of free rewards to unlock. The highlight of the Fortune & Colors event is the exclusive Star-Lord outfit. Here’s how to claim the Star-Lord skin at no cost in NetEase Games’ Marvel Rivals.
How to Unlock the Star-Lord Skin in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event
Similar to the Winter Celebration, players must collect an in-game currency, Danqing, to advance in the Fortune & Colors event. Represented by a paintbrush and red paint container, Danqing is earned by completing event challenges in the new Clash of Dancing Lions mode, as well as in Quick Play and Competitive matches.
While base challenges may vary, event-specific quests remain constant. Here’s a list of all Fortune & Colors challenges released so far:
- Complete 3 Clash of Dancing Lions matches
- Intercept the ball 3 times in a single Clash of Dancing Lions match
After earning Danqing, players can access the event pass to unlock rewards. The Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin requires 900 Danqing. While this may seem steep, the event runs until February 14th, giving players ample time to complete challenges and secure the skin.

How to Try the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane Skin Without Unlocking It in Marvel Rivals
For players who prefer not to grind but want to experience the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin, there’s an alternative. The Clash of Dancing Lions mode, a superhero-themed take on Rocket League, limits players to three characters—Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist. All three have Spring Festival skins, which players can test out simply by playing this mode.
If the Clash of Dancing Lions mode inspires players to collect all three skins, the in-game store offers the Dancing Lions bundle. It includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze and Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skins for 2,800 Units, roughly $20. Given the cost of individual skins, this bundle is a solid value.
That’s how to secure the Star-Lord skin for free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors event. For more, check out all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in Marvel Rivals Season 1 and how to earn them.
Marvel Rivals is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
