Marvel Rivals Adding Skin Based on Spider-Man 2 Game

Marvel Rivals Unveils New Spider-Man 2 Skin

Get ready, Marvel Rivals fans! A brand-new skin based on the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is swinging into the game on January 30th, coinciding with the PC launch of the acclaimed PlayStation title. This exciting addition celebrates the game's PC debut. The announcement also includes upcoming skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange, arriving on January 17th.

Spider-Man, a five-star Duelist in Marvel Rivals, is known for his high damage output and challenging gameplay. His unique mobility, including web-zipping and web-swinging, allows for swift and strategic combat. He's equipped with web-based attacks and powerful uppercuts, making him a formidable opponent. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest even encourages players to utilize Spider-Man to earn rewards.

NetEase Games surprised fans with the Twitter reveal of the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin, a legendary addition. The enthusiasm is high, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal's voice acting in both games. However, some players are debating between this new skin and a rumored Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin.

The Advanced Suit 2.0 Skin: A Closer Look

The classic red and blue suit, accented by a large, iconic white spider emblem, is instantly recognizable to fans of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many anticipate its arrival, concerns exist regarding the potential cost. Legendary skin bundles typically range from 2,200 Units, but MCU skins, like those for Spider-Man and Iron Man, are priced higher at 2,600 Units.

Earning Units in Marvel Rivals

Players aiming to quickly acquire Units for the new skin can focus on completing the Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges offer rewards including up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, combined with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skin in the in-game shop. With a promising lineup of cosmetic items on the horizon, the Marvel Rivals community eagerly awaits NetEase Games' next announcements.
