RIVALS Season 4, “The Standard Season”, is scheduled to start on Saturday, November 14 at 02:00 UTC. For players in the Americas that is Friday evening, November 13 (6 PM Pacific, 9 PM Eastern), which matches the “11/13/26” date in the developer’s own listing. Nosniy Games has not published what Season 4 contains, so this page separates what is confirmed from what is not and tells you what to finish before Ranked resets.

Quick answer: RIVALS Season 4
- Start: Nov 14, 02:00 UTC (Fri Nov 13, 6 PM PST / 9 PM EST), per the official Roblox event listing.
- Name: “The Standard Season” (official listing). The listing text reads only “SEASON 4 IS COMING. 11/13/26”.
- Ranked: a new Ranked season means a new set of 10 placement matches, based on how the community wiki describes the system.
- Not announced: new weapons, maps, Season Pass rewards and bundle prices. We checked, and none of it is on the official listing or game page.
- Checked: Nov 8, 11:29 UTC. We will update this page when Nosniy Games shares more.

RIVALS Season 4 start time in every time zone
The listing on Roblox gives a start of 2026-11-14 at 02:00 UTC. Roblox events are scheduled times, and big updates can roll out in the minutes around them, so be in the lobby a little early. The table converts that time using standard time zones in force on that date (US daylight saving ended on November 1).
| Region | Local start time |
|---|---|
| UTC | Sat Nov 14, 2:00 AM |
| US Pacific (PST) | Fri Nov 13, 6:00 PM |
| US Mountain (MST) | Fri Nov 13, 7:00 PM |
| US Central (CST) | Fri Nov 13, 8:00 PM |
| US Eastern (EST) | Fri Nov 13, 9:00 PM |
| Brazil (Brasilia) | Fri Nov 13, 11:00 PM |
| UK (GMT) | Sat Nov 14, 2:00 AM |
| Central Europe (CET) | Sat Nov 14, 3:00 AM |
| India (IST) | Sat Nov 14, 7:30 AM |
| Singapore / Philippines | Sat Nov 14, 10:00 AM |
| Japan (JST) | Sat Nov 14, 11:00 AM |
| Sydney (AEDT) | Sat Nov 14, 1:00 PM |
| New Zealand (NZDT) | Sat Nov 14, 3:00 PM |
The same listing shows an end time of December 5 at 02:00 UTC. Roblox events always carry an end time, and nothing on the page says the season stops then, so do not read it as the season length. Past seasons ran far longer, as the next section shows.
How long do RIVALS seasons last?
The community Roblox Rivals Wiki lists the release date of every Ranked season. We counted the days between them. Only Season 0, the Ranked testing period, ran longer than Season 3, and Season 4 arrives 204 days after Season 3 began.
| Season | Released | Days until the next one | New weapons (per the wiki) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Season 0 (Ranked release) | Feb 28, 2025 | 210 | None listed |
| Season 1, The Warp Season | Sep 26, 2025 | 77 | Distortion, Warper, Warpstone |
| Season 2, The Polar Season | Dec 12, 2025 | 133 | Permafrost, Maul |
| Season 3, The Fame Season | Apr 24, 2026 | 204 (to Nov 14) | Grappler, Spear |
| Season 4, The Standard Season | Nov 14, 2026 (scheduled) | Not announced | Not announced |
Seasons 1 to 3 each added a Contraband weapon through the Season Pass plus a Prime weapon, and Season 3 also added three maps (Westown, Museum and Studio), according to the wiki and a GosuGamers report from April 26. That is a pattern, not a promise: nobody has confirmed that Season 4 follows it.
What is confirmed and what is not
Confirmed by the developer
- The season name, “The Standard Season”, and the 11/13/26 date, on the Nosniy Games event listing on Roblox (last edited October 28).
- The game page still describes Update 24, the Halloween update, and was last updated on Nov 2. At 11:24 UTC on Nov 8 the game had about 201,000 players online and more than 19.2 billion visits.
Reported by the community, not by the developer
- The wiki lists the Arch Uzi as the Season 4 reward for the Season 3 Top 200 Archnemesis players. This follows the earlier pattern (Arch Katana, Arch Crossbow and Arch Molotov went to the Top 200 of seasons 0, 1 and 2). The wiki’s Arch Uzi page says the skin will be handed out when Season 4 releases.
Unknown
- New weapons, maps, game modes, balance changes, Season Pass rewards, Prime and Contraband bundle contents and prices. The listing art is a black card with three white question marks, so even the artwork is still a teaser.
What happens to Ranked when Season 4 starts
The wiki describes the Ranked system like this (page last edited November 4). We have not played it, so treat the numbers as the community’s documentation.
- Placement: you play 10 placement matches to reveal your starting rank. Your result and your rank from the previous season both matter, and the highest rank you can place into is Diamond I (2,500 ELO).
- Entry requirements: Level 100, 10 standard duels, a Roblox account at least 14 days old, 30 completed tasks and a verified account (verified phone number, Robux spend or ID). GosuGamers reported the Level 100 and verification rules when Season 3 launched.
- Bans: each team bans one map and two weapons before the match.
- ELO shields: one free shield a day after you get a rank, which stops ELO loss for one match. Players at Platinum I or higher do not get them.
- Decay: Onyx I players and above lose 100 ELO a day after 7 days without playing Ranked, down to a floor of 3,000 ELO.
| Tier | Bronze | Silver | Gold | Platinum | Diamond | Onyx | Nemesis |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| III (lowest) | 400+ | 1000+ | 1600+ | 2200+ | 2800+ | 3400+ | – |
| II | 200+ | 800+ | 1400+ | 2000+ | 2600+ | 3200+ | – |
| I (highest) | 0+ | 600+ | 1200+ | 1800+ | 2400+ | 3000+ | 3600+ |
Above Nemesis sits Archnemesis, which is reserved for the top 200 players worldwide. ELO thresholds are from the wiki’s Ranked page.

What to do before Season 4 starts
- Get Ranked-ready now. If you are not yet Level 100 or verified, fix that this week, because those are the gates for placement matches on day one.
- Finish the Ranked Contract. The wiki says each season’s contract pays out by Ranked wins, ending at 200 wins with a free skin and 500 bonus Glory.
- Play your final Ranked matches. Season-end Glory depends on your Ranked wins and your final ELO.
- Claim Season Pass tiers you have earned. The wiki shows a separate 70-tier track for each season, and we found no official word on whether unclaimed Season 3 tiers carry over, so claim before the switch. Per the wiki, the pass gives one level for every 25 round wins or 20 minutes played, and after 7 levels, level gain pauses for 7 days.
- Hold your Skin Tickets. The wiki says they do not expire and carry over between seasons. Ten tickets buy one skin or Skin Case.
How Glory works at the end of a season
Glory is the Ranked currency. According to the wiki, you get it when the season ends, using this formula with a cap of 2,500 from seasonal performance: 1,250 x (Ranked wins / 250) + 1,250 x (final ELO / 3,600). Some worked examples from that formula:
| Ranked wins | Final ELO | Glory from the formula |
|---|---|---|
| 50 | 1,200 (Gold I) | about 667 |
| 100 | 2,400 (Diamond I) | about 1,333 |
| 200 | 3,000 (Onyx I) | about 2,042 |
| 250 | 3,600 (Nemesis) | 2,500 (cap) |
Glory is spent in the Ranked Shop. The wiki lists four universal items (Emoji: Imp charm for 250, Impaled finisher for 500, Flex emote for 1,000 and Black Glass wrap for 2,000) and a four-tier track for each weapon you own: a charm for 100, a wrap for 200, a finisher for 300 and a Glorious weapon skin for 400, which is 1,000 Glory for the whole track.
Will Season 4 need a new code?
There is no Season 4 code yet. Our RIVALS codes page tracks the working codes and the Free Keys and we will add anything new there. For what else is live on Roblox that week, see Roblox events this week, and for the last big RIVALS event, our RIVALSWEEN guide.
