Marvel Rivals: Secret April Fools Reward – Venom Twerking Emote?

Marvel Rivals has just rolled out a fresh patch, and while it includes the usual polish and updates, it also hides something far more intriguing. As part of the April Fools event, a mystery reward is being introduced—and players are buzzing with speculation.

This surprise is tied to the Galacta's Cosmic Adventure event. If you’ve been diligently completing your challenges and collecting all rewards on the board, you’re in for a unique gift. Starting April 1st through April 4th, a new item will become claimable. What is it, exactly? Well... fans think they’ve figured it out.

The Icon Sparks Speculation

Looking at the reward icon’s silhouette, it seems like this could be a Venom twerking emote. The shape strongly resembles Venom^[1], hands on knees, in a rather familiar pose. While this hasn’t been officially confirmed by the developers, the community is running with the theory—and honestly, it feels totally on-brand for an April Fools drop.

Given Venom’s famously bulky frame and, let’s say, well-defined proportions, this theory isn’t far-fetched. The devs have a history of leaning into the community’s meme culture, and if there’s one thing players didn’t know they needed—it might just be this.

How to Unlock the Reward

To claim the emote (or whatever it turns out to be), players must complete all tasks and collect every reward from the Galacta's Cosmic Adventure ^[2] board. If you’ve already done that, you’re set.

The window to claim the gift opens on April 1st and closes April 4th, so be sure to log in during that time.

Temporary Fun or Permanent Collectible?

It’s unclear whether this reward will remain permanently in your collection or if it’s a limited-time cosmetic exclusive to the April Fools period. The developers are calling it an “Easter egg gift”, which suggests it may be a one-time surprise for active players.

Whether it sticks around or not, it’s definitely one of the more amusing rewards Marvel Rivals has hinted at so far.

Assuming the theory is true, this would mark one of the funniest community-driven cosmetics in the game. Marvel Rivals has shown it’s not afraid to have a little fun, and this potential Venom emote is just another example of the team embracing the game’s lighter side 

At the end of the day, no one knows for sure what the reward is—yet—but the possibility of a twerking Venom has certainly ignited excitement. We’ll all find out together on April 1st.
