MLBB celebrates 9th anniversary with festival event, P.ACE skins

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) celebrates its 9th anniversary with the “9th to Meet You" festival event featuring new 9th P.ACE girl group skins. These skins will feature the heroes Fanny, Cici, and Zhuxin. There's also a separate skin for Lolita as their superfan. Up to two skins will be given out for free through limited-time events, while the rest can be acquired using Diamonds.

On top of the festivities, the event will also introduce a new reward system: Stardust Vault. All event items you have will be converted into Stardust Crystals when the event concludes. You can then use this currency to exchange for a wide variety of skins. That's just the tip of the iceberg. There is more content coming during the anniversary festival.

Here is a quick look at what you can expect in the upcoming MLBB 9th Anniversary event. 

As mentioned above, four new girl group-themed skins named 9th P.ACE will be released during the annual festivities. Out of the three skins, the Fanny 9th P.ACE skin can be acquired for free. All you have to do is participate in the event.

Here is a quick rundown of all the skins and their release dates:

The pricing for the new skins remains under wraps. However, we can speculate that these skins will be around 800 Diamonds or lower. If you are looking for a reason to get these skins, they are all currently at the top of our MLBB meta tier list.

Another freebie you can acquire is the Lolita Superfan skin, which also comes with a painted variant. You can acquire these skins by completing the event task starting on Oct. 17, 2025, and solving a puzzle. You can also acquire other anniversary items through this event. 

The Light Up! Anniversary Venue! event is where you can acquire the Fanny9th P.ACE skin in MLBB for free. The event is pretty straightforward and does not require too much grinding. 

You complete tasks like logging in daily and playing a match to collect Anniversary points. These points can then be used to complete various idol activities, which will reward you with Anniversary Energy. 

The Anniversary Energy is the main currency for the exchange Shop. Collect a total of 10,800 energy to claim an Epic Skin Selection Chest, which includes the featured Fanny 9th P.ACE skin. You can keep playing and earning more energy to claim other rewards like recall animations, lobby banners, and more.

If you’re lazy, don’t worry. There is a Skip Voucher you can claim by playing with nearby friends. You can use these tokens to skip various tasks and claim their respective rewards. 

The Stardust Vault is a new permanent shop in the game where you can get free special and lower-tier skins in MLBB. All limited-time currencies or tokens you get from events will be converted to Stardust Crystals once they expire. These crystals can then be exchanged for the available skins inside the Stardust Vault.

Starting Oct. 24, 2025, you can start collecting Resplendent Shards, which change the color of select skins and their effects in the game. It’s still unknown where you can get these shards in the game. Most likely, you’ll be getting them from events or purchasing them using Diamonds.

Anyone who has spent enough time in MLBB knows the familiar cycle of emotions that comes with competitive play. At one point or another, you’ll run into that salty teammate or opponent who, after a rough match, throws out the classic challenge: a 1v1 duel to “settle things.” You can try and humor them, but you don’t necessarily gain anything from these matches.

With the new 1v1 Game Mode, you now have a reason to challenge other players to a duel. The new mode will arrive on Oct. 9, 2025, with a special event. From Oct. 9 until Nov. 17, 2025, you can earn Guess Coins by guessing who will win in these 1v1 matches. So, round up your squad and see who is the best solo player.
