Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops explained: What you need to do
Getting twitchy not being in the Marvel Rivals beta?
If you somehow didn't catch the first and second rounds, you'll be delighted to know that there is a third round of Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops and we've explained what you need to do to nab one for yourself.
Getting an access code via Twitch Drops is just one way to get into the Marvel Rivals beta. You will want to do so fast as we are quickly approaching the Marvel Rivals beta end date.
There is still time though to hop in and play as one of the many characters found in Marvel Rivals who are backed up by a convincing voice cast. Jeff the Land Shark and Thor were recently added to the beta with Jeff the Land Shark having a particularly powerful team-up ability with Luna Ice.
But with the beta soon to end, we will have to wait for a full Marvel Rivals release date before we can jump back in. Unless, of course, there is another beta along the way!
Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops explained: What you need to do
To earn Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops, you need to watch a Twitch stream in the Marvel Rivals category, enable Twitch Drops and watch for at least one hour before receiving a drop.
The drop will be a Marvel Rivals closed beta key that you can use on Steam, Xbox Series X/S or PlayStation 5.
The codes are limited in number, so you will need to get in there first to ensure you snag one.
If you do miss out, you can fortunately try again the next day. Find out exactly when in the next section.
Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops times
Marvel Rivals Twitch Drops round three will start at 1am BST on 1st August and run until 1am BST on 3rd August.
The Twitch Drops reset at 1am BST, which isn’t exactly ideal for us in the UK or Europe, but you can set the Twitch stream up before you go to bed and set an alarm for when 60 minutes have passed if you’re desperate to get in.
There’s not a whole lot of time to try and get a code, though, so you may otherwise have to rely on different methods of gaining entry to the Marvel Rivals closed beta test.
