Marvel Rivals Unveils Spider-Man 2-Inspired Skin

Marvel Rivals: New Spider-Man 2 Skin Incoming!

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 release of the acclaimed PlayStation title. This exciting addition celebrates the game's PC debut. The announcement also revealed new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange arriving earlier, on January 17th.

Spider-Man, a five-star Duelist in Marvel Rivals, is known for his high damage output and challenging gameplay. His signature web-slinging and zip-lining mechanics allow for quick and agile combat. He boasts powerful abilities like webbing enemies, pulling them close, or delivering knockout uppercuts. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest even rewards players for using Spider-Man.

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

The Advanced Suit 2.0 Skin: A Closer Look

The iconic red and blue suit, accented by a large, white spider emblem, is instantly recognizable to fans of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While excitement is high, concerns remain about the potential cost. Many legendary skins 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 for the new skin might consider completing the Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges offer rewards including up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skin in the in-game shop. With a wealth of exciting cosmetics on the way, the future of Marvel Rivals looks bright.
