You queue for one more match, thumb hovering over the ready button, and the lobby flashes Season 8—no free skins. I felt that pinch too, the small game-collector panic that something slipped past you. Then I found the Savage Adventure pass and realized Ultron’s Cybernetic Drip is yours once you reach Tier 12.
You can spot the Savage Adventure banner in the Season 8 menu — How to Get Free Ultron Cybernetic Drip Skin in Marvel Rivals
I’m going to tell you exactly what I did so you don’t waste time. You don’t need to buy the Premium VIP pass to claim Ultron’s Cybernetic Drip; it’s a free reward on the event pass. Play matches, earn XP, and hit Tier 12 to add the skin to your collection.
NetEase Games put this skin in the free track deliberately—think of it like finding a silver bullet in a haystack if you only skim battle pass pages. The upsell exists: the premium pass grants extra outfits (Hela, Luna Snow) and emoji bundles, but Ultron’s drip is yours for the grind alone.
You’ll be grinding XP match by match — How the Savage Adventure event hands out the skin
You only need to hit Tier 12 on the Savage Adventure event pass. That’s the checkpoint for Ultron’s Cybernetic Drip and its accompanying nameplate, spray, and an emote—each free on the pass. Play standard matches and focus on daily tasks to stack XP faster.
If you prefer to skip the match slog, the premium VIP pass is an option: it costs 990 Lattice (~$10 (€9)) and unlocks the premium track items like Hela’s Savage Monarch outfit and Luna Snow’s Sonic Trailblazer costume. I’d treat the premium as a convenience purchase if you want everything immediately; otherwise, the free route gives the core Ultron bundle.
What is the Marvel Rivals Savage Adventure premium pass price?
The premium VIP pass is sold for 990 Lattice (~$10 (€9)), purchased via the in-game store on platforms such as the App Store or Google Play. Price can show in local currency depending on your store region.
Are there any free Marvel Rivals skins in the Savage Adventure event?
Yes. Ultron’s Cybernetic Drip is free on the event pass at Tier 12, and several other cosmetics (nameplate, sprays, emote) sit on the free track. Premium-only items are clearly marked on the pass and require the VIP purchase.

If you’re short on time, prioritize daily and weekly objectives and pick modes that reward XP faster; small, steady wins stack quickly. The free Ultron sits low enough on the pass that an evening of focused matches will usually get you there.
Want a practical trick? Use party matchmaking or a duo partner to shorten match time and increase win rate. Combine that with daily tasks and you’ll reach Tier 12 without spending a cent. The free path is as subtle as a neon sign in a blackout—easy to miss if you don’t check the pass.
So: will you chase only the free Ultron Cybernetic Drip, or drop 990 Lattice (~$10 (€9)) for the premium pass and the Hela and Luna Snow extras — which do you think is the smarter move?
