Marvel Rivals has taken the hero-shooter world by storm, with mechanics often compared to Overwatch and Valorant. With its rapid growth and loyal player base, many fans expected the game to support a fully functional gifting system, especially for something as essential as the battle pass.

Unfortunately, that isn’t the case—you still can’t gift the battle pass in Marvel Rivals. In this post, we’ll explore why that’s the case, what gifting options are currently available, and whether we might see a battle pass gifting feature added in the future.
No Option to Gift the Battle Pass (Yet)
As of now, Marvel Rivals does not allow players to gift the battle pass directly. While the game features a gifting system via the in-game store, this system is limited to select items such as:
- Premium skins
- Emotes
- Bundles
The battle pass—the core of seasonal progression and exclusive rewards—is not on the list of giftable content. That means if you’re hoping to surprise a friend with full access to Season 3 or future battle passes, you’re out of luck for the time being.
Workarounds: Can You Still Help a Friend?
Even though you can’t directly gift the battle pass, there are a couple of indirect workarounds:
- Send Lattice (the game’s premium currency) to a friend if Marvel Rivals enables direct transfers in the future.
- Send money or a game store gift card so they can purchase the battle pass themselves.
While these options aren't as smooth or satisfying as pressing a "Gift Battle Pass" button, they remain the only ways to support a friend’s progression.
Why Doesn’t Marvel Rivals Support Battle Pass Gifting?
There’s been no official word from NetEase, the game's publisher, on why this feature is missing. However, it likely comes down to development priorities and monetization strategies early in the game's lifecycle. Given that the gifting infrastructure already exists for cosmetic items, it’s puzzling why the battle pass isn’t included.
Why Players Want This Feature
Gifting battle passes has become standard in games like:
- Fortnite
- Apex Legends
- Call of Duty: Warzone
These games have seen boosts in player engagement and retention thanks to such features. Adding a battle pass gifting system in Marvel Rivals would:
- Make seasonal rewards more accessible
- Strengthen the game's community
- Increase in-game purchases through shared incentives
It’s clear that players are asking for it—loudly. The pressure from the community might eventually push the developers to roll out this feature in a future update.
Will It Ever Be Added?
Nothing has been officially confirmed, but all signs point to a “maybe.”
Given that a gifting system is already in place, many fans believe it's only a matter of time before NetEase expands its functionality to include the battle pass. As Marvel Rivals grows and matures, quality-of-life features like this one will be key to keeping players happy.
