Marvel Rivals is marking its first anniversary by giving every player 2,500 Units and a free Jeff the Land Shark “Business Suit” costume. The login rewards begin on November 27 (with wider anniversary content rolling out November 28). Below is a clear, action-focused walkthrough to claim the items, equip the costume, and handle common issues if the rewards don’t appear immediately.
What you get and when
The anniversary giveaway includes two items: 2,500 Units (premium currency) and a free Jeff the Land Shark “Business Suit” costume designated as Legendary. Developers and community posts indicate the gifts arrive via in-game Mail for players who log in on or after November 27. Some roadmap materials list the broader anniversary event on November 28; treat November 27 as the start for the login gift and November 28 as the main content day. The distribution window hasn’t been formally specified, so claim the rewards promptly once available.
Method 1 — Claim the login rewards via Mail
Step 1: Update the game to the latest version. Installing the newest patch ensures your client can receive event Mail and avoids version mismatch errors that block reward delivery.
Step 2: Log in on or after November 27. If you log in before the start time, log out and back in after the date to trigger the reward Mail.
Step 3: Open the in-game Mail from the main lobby. Look for an envelope or Mail icon in the lobby UI; new messages typically show a notification badge.
Step 4: Find the anniversary message and press the claim button on its attachments. This adds the 2,500 Units to your currency balance and unlocks the Jeff “Business Suit” costume on your account.
Step 5: Confirm receipt. Check your Units total in the currency section of the store or top bar, and verify Jeff’s costume appears in his hero customization screen.
Method 2 — Equip Jeff’s “Business Suit” (Legendary) costume
Step 1: Go to Heroes in the main lobby and select Jeff the Land Shark. This opens Jeff’s hero page, where cosmetics can be managed.
Step 2: Open the Costumes tab for Jeff. You should see “Business Suit” marked as unlocked after claiming the Mail attachments.
Step 3: Select “Business Suit” and set it as active. If available, use “Set as Default” so the costume loads automatically for future matches.
Method 3 — Rewards not showing? Try this
Step 1: Reboot the game client and re-log in to the same account you used previously. A fresh session often triggers delayed Mail delivery.
Step 2: Check the date and time zone. If you’re early relative to the rollout window, wait until your local time passes November 27 and try again.
Step 3: Verify you’re on the latest patch. If a pending update exists in your launcher, install it and log back in to refresh event flags.
Step 4: Inspect all Mail folders. Some clients separate “System,” “Events,” and “Promotions.” If you have a “Claim All” option, use it once you’ve reviewed the attachments.
Step 5: Check official channels for maintenance or staggered rollout notices. If the gift still doesn’t appear after 24 hours, submit an in-game support ticket with your account ID and a brief description.
Method 4 — Spend your 2,500 Units wisely
Step 1: Review current shop prices before purchasing. Many Legendary costumes are priced around 2,200 Units, while some high-profile skins can cost about 2,600, so 2,500 covers most—though not all—Legendary items.
Step 2: Prioritize items that rarely rotate or belong to limited-time sets. This reduces the risk of missing time-limited cosmetics during the anniversary period.
Step 3: Combine with other seasonal rewards if needed. If your target is a 2,600-unit item, consider waiting for additional event Units from seasonal activities to close a small gap instead of spending cash.
Step 4: Claim your free Jeff costume before buying Jeff cosmetics. Unlocking the free Legendary first avoids unnecessary purchases and ensures your Units go toward other items.

FAQ
Does the Jeff costume cost anything? No. The Jeff the Land Shark “Business Suit” is granted free via Mail when you log in after the start date and claim the attachment.
What if I already own a Jeff Legendary? This giveaway unlocks the listed costume specifically. Ownership of other Jeff skins doesn’t affect eligibility for this free costume.
I claimed the Mail but my Units didn’t increase. Close the store or lobby, then re-open it to refresh the currency display. If the balance still looks unchanged, restart the client and check again.
Can I claim the rewards on multiple accounts? Each account that logs in after the start date should receive one set of gifts via Mail. Claims are generally one-time per account.
Are the rewards region-locked? The giveaway is announced broadly; however, delivery timing can vary slightly by region and time zone. If you don’t see the Mail yet, re-check after local midnight and verify you’re on the latest patch.
Log in after the start date, claim the Mail attachments, and you’ll have both the Units and Jeff’s Legendary costume ready to go; if anything’s missing, a quick client restart or day-one patch is usually all it takes.
