Marvel Rivals Adding Skin Based on Spider-Man 2 Game

Summary

• Marvel Rivals will debut a new skin based on Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
• This skin celebrates Spider-Man 2's PC launch on January 30th.

Marvel Rivals surprised fans by announcing a new skin based on the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2, launching January 30th. This coincides with the PC debut of the PlayStation exclusive title developed by Insomniac Games. Additionally, new Mantis and Doctor Strange skins arrive in Marvel Rivals on January 17th.

Spider-Man, a five-star Duelist in Marvel Rivals, is a challenging but rewarding character to master. His high damage output and superior mobility, thanks to web-zipping and web-swinging, make him a formidable opponent. He can web enemies, pull them close, or deliver devastating uppercuts for a quick knockout. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest even encourages players to use Spider-Man to earn rewards.

In a surprise Twitter announcement, NetEase Games revealed the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin from Spider-Man 2 will be available in Marvel Rivals on January 30th. The announcement generated excitement, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal voices Spider-Man in both games. However, some fans are debating between this skin and a leaked Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin potentially coming to the game.

Marvel Rivals Announces the Release of the Advanced Suit 2.0

The Advanced Suit 2.0 boasts the classic red and blue color scheme, highlighted by the iconic large white spider symbol synonymous with Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many anticipate this cosmetic addition, concerns exist regarding its potential price. Many legendary skin bundles cost 2,200 Units, but MCU skins like Spider-Man and Iron Man are priced at 2,600 Units.

Players aiming to quickly acquire Units in Marvel Rivals might consider completing the Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges reward 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 exciting cosmetics on the horizon, fans eagerly await NetEase Games' next announcements.
