Quick Links
Chrono Tokens and Units are the two primary currencies you’ll need if you want to unlock new cosmetics, emotes and other items inMarvel Rivals. They can be earned in-game at no cost, but if you want to speed things up, you’re able to purchaseLattice- the premium currency that costs real money. (Lattice, by the way, can be obtained by simply opening the in-game store and purchasing the quantity that you need. )
If you’re curious about how to earn the game’s two free currencies - and what you can spend them on - we’re here to help.

How to Use Chrono Tokens
Chrono Tokens are used to purchase items from the seasonal Battle Pass,which can be accessed from the game’s main menu. Simply click on the item you wish to purchase, and if you have enough Chrono Tokens to buy it, it will be yours.
It’s worth noting, however, that the Battle Pass is a slow, grindy process on the free version. You’ll notice a lot of items are locked, which means they are inaccessible unless you upgrade to the Luxury Battle Pass (which costs anywhere from 490 Lattice for the “base” Luxury Battle Pass to 1,050 Lattice for additional perks).Each page of the Battle Pass is gated by how many Chrono Tokens you’ve earned, and you won’t be able to buy items from a page until you’ve unlocked it.If you scroll down through the pages, it will tell you how many more Chrono Tokens you need to earn in order to unlock it.
Each page of the Battle Pass is gated by how many Chrono Tokens you’ve earned, and you won’t be able to buy items from a page until you’ve unlocked it.
Note: Spending Chrono Tokens on items in the Battle Pass will not subtract from your overall number of Chrono Tokens earned.
What are Units?
Units are the “hot” currency in Marvel Rivals. It’s the primary currency you’ll use to unlock character cosmetics, emotes and sprays (units cannot be used on the luxury Battle Pass, however). And with cosmetic bundles costing anywhere from1,400 to 2,600 Units, depending on the character and bundle, you’ll need quite a few to start unlocking your favorite Hero’s items.
Units as Rewards
Units can be obtained as rewards only through completing Seasonal Event challenges, and the number of Seasonal Event missions that reward Units is limited. Completing a Seasonal Event challenge will reward you with60 Units.
Obtaining Units through Battle Pass
Units can be purchased from the Battle Pass using Chrono Tokens.However, the amount of Units you can purchase is limited by the free Battle Pass, and since each page is gated by how many Chrono Tokens you’ve earned overall, it can take a while to get your hands on all the freely redeemable Units.
Converting Lattice into Units
By far the quickest (and most expensive) way to obtain Units is byconverting Lattice into Units, which can be done from the home page by clicking on your Units currency tab. (You can also purchase Lattice by clicking on the yellow icon on your home page.) It’s pretty straightforward: 100 Lattice converts into 100 Units.
Below is a chart sharing how much Lattice bundles cost (in USD).

How to Use Units
Units can be redeemed by visiting any Hero’s “Cosmetics” tab in the Hero Gallery. There, you’ll be able to see which cosmetics, emotes, MVP animations and sprays are available to unlock. Once you click on the one you want, you’ll be brought to that specific purchase page. Most cosmetics can be purchased individually or in a bundle, whereas emotes, MVP animations and sprays must be purchased as a bundle.
Units are specifically for character customization items, and you currently cannot use Units to purchase items from the Battle Pass.
How to Equip, Use Emotes in Marvel Rivals
Emoting at other players is a tried-and-true tradition of any multiplayer game, and Marvel Rivals is no different.
