Steps to unlock the Venom Reborn King in Black skin in Marvel Rivals
To get the Reborn King in Black skin, you’ll need to participate in the Ancient Powers Awaken Event Pass. Unlike other free-tier rewards, this skin requires an upgrade to the premium edition of the pass. Once you upgrade, you receive permanent access to the skin, so you don’t have to worry about losing it after the event is over.
The process is simple:
- Log in to Marvel Rivals and navigate to the Ancient Powers Awaken Event Pass menu.
- Choose the premium pass option.
- Complete the purchase, and the Venom Reborn King in Black skin will be unlocked along with other premium rewards.
Aside from Venom’s new look, the premium pass also gives you access to a set of extras that add more flair to your gameplay. Players may expect a new addition to the headline skin. Furthermore, with the chance to unlock more rewards as you go, you’ll receive additional cosmetic items like Nameplate, MVP animation, themed Spray, and an Emote to fill out your collection.
