The Spring Festival is now in full swing within *Marvel Rivals*, bringing with it a host of free rewards for players to snag. The highlight of the Fortune & Colors event? A free outfit for everyone's beloved outlaw. Here's your guide on how to unlock the Star-Lord skin for free in NetEase Games’ *Marvel Rivals*.

How To Get the Star-Lord Skin Free in Marvel Rivals’ Fortune & Colors Event

Similar to the Winter Celebration, you'll need to collect an in-game currency called Danqing to advance in the Fortune & Colors event. Represented by a paintbrush and a container of red paint, Danqing can only be earned by tackling event challenges in the new Clash of Dancing Lions mode, as well as in Quick Play and Competitive matches.

While the base challenges may shift, the event-specific ones remain constant. Here's a rundown of 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 accumulated some Danqing, you can navigate to the event pass to start unlocking rewards. To claim the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin at no cost, you'll need to gather 900 Danqing. It might seem like a hefty amount, but with the Fortune & Colors event running until February 14th, there's ample time to complete the necessary challenges and secure the skin.

How To Play With the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane Skin Without Unlocking It in Marvel Rivals

For those who aren't keen on grinding but still want a taste of the Star-Lord Lion’s Mane skin, there's an alternative route. The Clash of Dancing Lions mode, which operates similarly to 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 Spring Festival skin, available for trial to anyone who jumps into the mode.

If the Clash of Dancing Lions mode wins you over and you're tempted to add all three skins to your collection, a visit to the in-game store might be in order. The Dancing Lions bundle, which includes the Iron Fist Lion’s Gaze skin and the Black Widow Lion’s Heartbeat skin, is priced at 2,800 Units – roughly equivalent to just over $20. Considering the near-equivalent cost of individual skins, it's a deal worth considering.

And that's how you can secure the Star-Lord skin for free during *Marvel Rivals*' Fortune & Colors event. For more on the game, here are all the Chronoverse Saga Achievements in *Marvel Rivals* Season 1 and how to earn them.
