Marvel Rivals College Perks: Get 10 Free Skins With a Student Email
You might be subsisting off ramen noodles and Red Bull, but that doesn't mean you need to look broke while you're playing your games. NetEase has introduced Marvel Rivals perks for college and university students that let them wear some of the coolest in-game costumes for free. All you need is a valid student email and the know-how to navigate the in-game menus. Linking your NetEase account with your college's domain is a simple process that doesn't take more than a couple of minutes. Most US schools should be on NetEase's list, qualifying their students for the program, but keep reading to see how others can petition for their own skins. The currently available college perk lets you get free loaner costumes and MVP animations, but there are no details about how the program will evolve in the future. This is a good way to earn some free loot outside of events, Twitch drops and other promotions. Here's all the information about how to join NetEase's college perks program -- and what skins you'll be able to wear throughout Marvel Rivals Season 3. The first rotation of college perks skins includes outfits for Captain America and the Winter Soldier. NetEase Games/Screenshot by CNET What Marvel Rivals college perks are available right now? The current Marvel Rivals college perk allows you to link your student email with your NetEase account to temporarily unlock 10 free costumes (and their associated MVP highlights) for use throughout Season 3. Activating college perks right now will let you use the following skins until the end of the season: Moon Knight Lunar General Captain America Avengers: Infinity War Spider-Man No Way Home Invisible Woman Malice Scarlet Witch Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness The Thing Trench Coat Jeff the Land Shark Incognito Dolphin Thor Lord of Asgard Cloak and Dagger Midnight Duo Winter Soldier Blood Soldier It's unclear whether additional college perks will be available in the future, though it's likely you'll at least be able to unlock a rotating wardrobe of trial skins through the program during future Marvel Rivals seasonal updates. How to unlock Marvel Rivals college perks Accessing the college perks is fairly straightforward and doesn't take more than a couple of minutes of your time, but it's tucked away in a menu you probably don't access all that often. Here's a step-by-step guide to unlock college perks on your Marvel Rivals account: Open Marvel Rivals and navigate to the main menu Click the gear icon at the top right of the screen to open the game's settings. The gear icon is located near your profile picture and player level. Click the "community" button in the drop down menu. Navigate to the third tab for college perks, then click the "details" button. Enter your student email address and get a verification code. Find the verification code in your college email and copy and paste it into the in-game text box beneath your student email. Click the "verify" button. That's all there is to it -- once you're done with this process, you should have access to the Marvel Rivals college perks, and all 10 of the loaner costumes and MVP animations should be available for you to equip. College perks isn't the only way to get free skins in Season 3, of course -- though it's probably the quickest and easiest way to add 10 outfits to your account. NetEase Games/Screenshot by CNET Detailed guide: Getting free Marvel Rivals skins and MVP animations through college perks In order to activate Marvel Rivals college perks for your NetEase account, you'll have to verify that you're in possession of an active student email address for a supported academic institution. To begin this process, you need to navigate the same in-game menus that allow you to link your Discord account and become a NetEase Gamer Premium member -- you've likely poked around here in the past to claim a handful of free units, Marvel Rivals' premium costume-buying currency. When you're in the main menu, click the gear icon at the top right of the screen. It's one of the buttons next to your account picture and profile level. Then, click the Community button that appears on screen. Navigate to the College Perks tab and click the details button to start verifying your student email. All you need to do is enter your student email address, request a verification code to be sent to your email and then input that verification code in-game. Voila -- just like that, you'll have access to college perks on your Marvel Rivals account. If your email doesn't work, it might be because it isn't on the list of domains currently supported by the college perks program. You can see which school emails work here (PDF). If you go to school in the US, you shouldn't have a problem signing up for the program -- it's on the list of countries that have generally accepted academic email domains. Even still, if you're having trouble registering and it looks like your college or university is missing from the list, you're not completely out of luck. NetEase is having the Marvel Rivals support team field requests from students to add more domains to the program. To send in a support request to get Marvel Rivals college perks for your school, click the customer support link under the in-game settings. If you provide your country, university name and student email domain, NetEase will work to ensure that your school is added to the program. The list of supported colleges and universities is updated weekly, so don't fret if your verification doesn't work right away. If you're interested in what other free skins you can (permanently) unlock in Marvel Rivals, we have a comprehensive free skin guide too. FAQs Will more Marvel Rivals college perks be available in the future? It's unclear whether more Marvel Rivals college perks will be available in the future, but it's worth linking your student email with your account anyway. You'll get 10 loaner costumes for the duration of Season 3. Even if new perks aren't added to the program, it's likely that you'll earn a rotating wardrobe of cool new shop skins each season -- at the end of the day, it's still free access to cosmetics you wouldn't otherwise have.

Disney+ mega £1.99 deal ends in days - here's how to get it
Disney+ is offering a fantastic deal for streaming fans, with households able to get four months for £1.99 a month Disney+ is presenting a cracking deal for streaming enthusiasts in the UK, offering four months of access for £1.99 a month instead. However, time is running out to grab it with the offer set to expire on June 30. For less than the cost of a Starbucks brew or a meal deal, Disney+ streamers can indulge in Marvel Cinematic Universe shows, including WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, Hawkeye, Moon Knight, and Ms. Marvel for much less than the usual price - and the rate will last until the end of October. The platform also boasts a variety of Star Wars series, such as Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, Ahsoka, The Mandalorian, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and The Clone Wars, ensuring there's a wealth of content to keep viewers hooked for months. Classic Walt Disney animated films like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Hocus Pocus, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and The Lion King are also ready for your viewing enjoyment. There's also new content including the new season 4 of FX's The Bear (that premiered on June 26) and the riveting new sci-fi drama, Alien: Earth, which is set for release later this summer (August 13). These join the newly-released Snow White and Ironheart. The Stolen Girl is another smash hit that has garnered critical praise. The Disney+ £1.99 offer lasts for four months, providing streamers plenty of time to explore the extensive library of content on offer. However, it's crucial to remember that the £1.99 offer pertains only to the Standard with Ads version, so subscribers will have to tolerate commercials while watching their beloved shows, which may cause irritation. Disney+ has been met with praise on Trustpilot, where one happy user commented: "Very good selection, friendly support and easy to cancel if you need to. Very easy to navigate their site, and the openness and transparency they show should be a model for others." Nevertheless, one disgruntled customer criticised the ad frequency, remarking: "Way too many adverts. Luckily I got it free for three months, but would not pay to extend it." For families seeking additional streaming services, numerous offers are available. Sky has its own streaming deals, such as the £15 per month Sky Stream package. Furthermore, DAZN is giving sports enthusiasts an opportunity to sample its service through a limited-time trial offer. The Disney+ £1.99 deal can be snagged by households here.

The teaser then gives a glimpse of the action and thrill that awaits this season, with encounters and bomb blasts taking place. Nimrat Kaur makes a brief appearance, but it is Jaideep Ahlawat's presence at the very end that caught the attention of fans.

Fan reactions Reacting to the teaser, a fan commented: 'Jaideep Ahlawat! From a protagonist in Paatal Lok to an antagonist in The Family Man S3! Can't wait!' A second fan said, 'Oh man.. Jaideep Ahawat. Crazy look! couldn't ask for more. Worth the wait… Looking forward to this now.' One fan compared Jaideep's look in the show to the Winter Soldier from the MCU. 'Desi Winter Soldier,' read the comment. Many fans noted that the two actors had appeared together (but not shared screen) in the 2012 cult classic Gangs of Wasseypur. In the Anurag Kashyap film, Jaideep played Shahid Khan, the father of Manoj's Sardar Khan. Written by Raj, DK, and Suman Kumar, featuring dialogues by Sumit Arora, the series is directed by Raj & DK, with Suman Kumar and Tusshar Seyth joining as directors this season.
