The Spring Festival has kicked off in *Marvel Rivals*, bringing with it a host of exciting rewards to claim for free. The highlight of the Fortune & Colors event is undoubtedly the coveted free outfit for the beloved outlaw, Star-Lord. Here’s your comprehensive guide on how to secure the Star-Lord skin at no cost in NetEase Games’ *Marvel Rivals*.
How to Get the Star-Lord Skin Free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event
Similar to the Winter Celebration, the Fortune & Colors event requires players to accumulate a special in-game currency called Danqing. Represented by a paintbrush and a container of red paint, Danqing can only be earned by completing event-specific challenges. These challenges are available in the new game mode, Clash of Dancing Lions, as well as in Quick Play and Competitive matches.
While the base challenges may vary, the event-specific challenges remain constant. Here are the current Fortune & Colors quests:
- Complete 3 Clash of Dancing Lions matches
- Intercept the ball 3 times in a single Clash of Dancing Lions match
Once you’ve earned enough Danqing, you can navigate to the event pass and begin unlocking various items. To claim the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin for free, you'll need to accumulate 900 Danqing. This might seem daunting, but with the event running until February 14th, you have ample time to complete the necessary challenges and unlock this exclusive skin.

How to Play with the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane Skin Without Unlocking It in Marvel Rivals
If grinding isn't your thing but you still want to experience the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin, there's an alternative. The Clash of Dancing Lions mode, reminiscent of Rocket League but with a superhero flair, restricts players to three characters: Star-Lord, Black Widow, and Iron Fist. Each of these heroes sports a unique Spring Festival skin, allowing you to test them out in this new mode.
If the Clash of Dancing Lions mode wins you over and you decide to add all three skins to your collection, head over to the in-game store. The Dancing Lions bundle, which includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze skin and the Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skin, is available for 2,800 Units—roughly equivalent to just over $20. Considering the price of individual skins, this bundle offers excellent value.
That’s everything you need to know about securing the Star-Lord skin for free during the Fortune & Colors event in *Marvel Rivals*. For more on the game, check out all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to unlock them.
