Throughout 2025, Marvel Rivals is hosting the PlayStation Cups, console-exclusive in-game tournaments running from April to December.
PlayStation 5 (PS5) users can compete against others in their region for a chance to earn Units, Titles and more. Thanks to information shared by Sony, here’s the full schedule and how to enter the Marvel Rivals series.
An online blog post on the official PlayStation website reveals that the tournaments will be conducted in a similar way to the Marvel Rivals Championships (MRC).
Unsurprisingly, the PlayStation Cups are in-game tournaments exclusive to PS5 players, taking place in the Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa), and Pacific regions. Open for players to register, the event funnels down the best teams to compete against each other for a series of rewards available each month.
Here is a step by step guide on how to enter Marvel Rivals PlayStation Cups
- Launch Marvel Rivals on your PS5
- Navigate to the “Tournaments” tab at the top of your screen
- Select “Marvel Rivals PlayStation Cups”
- Select your region
- Now you’re ready to queue up in the PlayStation Cup and compete!
You’ll need to ensure you’re signed up with a team or a faction before entering. The blog post also states that all participants must be 16 years or older upon the registration deadline. There is a full list of rules available online for further details.
Marvel Rivals PlayStation Cups to be Held Monthly
Marvel Rivals PlayStation Cups will run from April 12th to December 27th, 2025. Each monthly challenge will be split into four separate stages: Registration, Quarterfinals, Semifinals and Finals. Save for registration, each stage will have a single-elimination bracket.
The top eight teams will be awarded prizes for their efforts, including a Faction Trophy and exclusive Titles.
| Place | Prize |
| 1st | 300 Units/Person + Faction Trophy + Title |
| 2nd | 200 Units/Person + Faction Trophy + Title |
| 3rd – 4th | 100 Units/Person + Faction Trophy + Title |
| 5th – 8th | Faction Trophy + Title |
Players will have a chance to grab these rewards each month if they progress far enough, meaning a single team could earn up to 2700 Units for each person if they placed first in every challenge.
