What is Marvel Rivals Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival Event?
Marvel Rivals Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival is a limited-time mode heavily inspired by Splatoon. It’s a 4v4v4 mode where three teams attempt to cover the map with their team’s colors.
This year’s mode is in a new map called Jeffland, a winter-themed map with holiday decorations. The event is taking place during Season 5.5, and it includes numerous additions over the previous version from December 2024. Jeff is the only playable character here, which means that those who don’t have many skins for the lovable shark can utilize LootBar’s services.
How to Play Marvel Rivals Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival Event?
Players must go to the ‘play’ tab in Marvel Rivals to play Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival event. All players use Jeff the Land Shark with a costume depending on their role, and the goal of every player is to paint the most surfaces in Jeffland with their team’s color. There’s a gauge at the top that tracks each team’s percentage of area covered. Every match lasts three minutes, and the team that covers the most of the map before the timer runs out wins.
Other mechanics include spraying paint on opponents to lower their health and eliminate them. When a player kills an enemy, they splash the surrounding area with their team’s color. Players can submerge into the ground painted in their team’s color to gain health, and it’s better to focus on painting instead of fighting because covering the map is how to win. Players can choose between three Jeff builds with different weapon types.
What are the rewards for playing Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival event in Marvel Rivals?
Considering the limited-time mode is here for around a month, it makes sense that it would hold the potential for some major rewards. The awesome thing about this mode is that it rewards players with two different types of currencies. These currencies are Gold Frost and Silver Frost, and are rewarded for meeting certain goals during the event.
This currency is used to decorate the event’s postcard. Decorating it increases the atmosphere points, which then rewards players with in-game goodies. Below are all of the rewards players can get by decorating the postcard during the event, as well as how many atmosphere points they need for it:
The Cuddle Fuzzlefin Spray requires 100 atmosphere points
The All-You-Can-Eat Emote requires 200 atmosphere points
The Cuddly Fuzzlefin Nameplate 300 atmosphere points
The How Ice Sculpting Works MVP animation requires 400 atmosphere points
The Cuddly Fuzzlefin Skin for Jeff requires 500 atmosphere points
The good news is that players shouldn’t have to grind too much, since most of the required missions are fairly simple and don’t require players to go out of their way too much.
What Classes are in Marvel Rivals Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival Event?
Players can choose between three classes in Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival. The roles in this game mode are Painter, Striker, and Keeper. Every class changes Jeff’s abilities for different playstyles.
Painter
The Painter class uses the Cuddly Fuzzlefin skin. It focuses on area coverage with “Snow Splash”, “Hide and Seek”, which provide healing and mobility, and “Sprinkler Spin” to paint nearby areas.
Striker
The Striker class utilizes the Powder Pink skin. This class excels in combat with “Frozen Spitball”, “Hide and Seek”, which gives immunity to slowing effects, and “Glacier Barrage”, which is a charged ice bomb. The “It’s Jeff”! Ability refreshes the ultimate if it defeats an enemy.
Keeper
The Keeper class uses the Blue Blizzard skin. It provides support using “Blasting Bubble”, a standard version of “Hide and Seek”, and “Sprinkler Spin” that launches a huge snowball. The “It’s Jeff!” ability creates an ice path that provides constant healing and cannot be painted over by other teams.
When is the Marvel Rivals Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival event available?
Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival event in Marvel Rivals is available from December 18, 2025, to January 16, 2026. Players can access this mode for almost a month, which is more than what some players assumed, since many thought the mode was to celebrate Christmas instead of the actual winter season.
Conclusion
This concludes everything to know about Jeff’s Winter Splash event in Marvel Rivals. This limited-time mode is an excellent way to get players in the holiday cheer, giving a way to cool down after a tiring competitive session. Of course, the mode is even better if you have some of Jeff’s more adorable skins as they grind for the Christmas one, and those who want them can always buy a Marvel Rivals top up or two.
