- Marvel Rivals will debut a new skin based on Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
- The skin is being added to celebrate Spider-Man 2's PC debut on January 30.
Marvel Rivals has thrilled fans with the announcement of a new skin inspired by the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2, set to be released on January 30. This coincides with the much-anticipated PC debut of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, a PlayStation exclusive developed by Insomniac Games. In addition to this exciting news, Marvel Rivals will also introduce new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange on January 17.
In Marvel Rivals, Spider-Man is classified as a Duelist, focusing on dealing significant damage during matches. With a challenging five-star difficulty rating, mastering Spider-Man requires skill and practice. Players can utilize Spider-Man's agility to web-zip and web-swing across the map, quickly engaging and disengaging from combat. His abilities include webbing enemies, pulling them towards him, and delivering powerful uppercuts to knock out opponents. The current Season 1 of Marvel Rivals features a Midnight Features quest that encourages players to use Spider-Man to earn rewards.
NetEase Games made the exciting announcement on Twitter, revealing that the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will be available as a legendary skin in Marvel Rivals on January 30. The news was met with enthusiasm from many fans, particularly because Yuri Lowenthal, who voices Spider-Man in both titles, lends his voice to this skin. However, some fans are torn between choosing the Advanced Suit 2.0 and a rumored Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin that might soon be available in Marvel Rivals.
Marvel Rivals Announces the Release of the Advanced Suit 2.0
The Advanced Suit 2.0 retains the classic red and blue color scheme, highlighted by the prominent white spider symbol that has become a hallmark of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many players are eager to acquire this new cosmetic, there are concerns about its potential cost, given that legendary MCU skins in Marvel Rivals, like those of Spider-Man and Iron Man, are priced at 2,600 Units, higher than the usual 2,200 Units for legendary skin bundles.
For those eager to gather Units swiftly in Marvel Rivals, completing the game's Heroic Journey achievements is a smart strategy. These challenges offer up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord as rewards. Units and Lattice can then be used to purchase any skins available in the game's shop. With a lineup of exciting cosmetics on the way, fans are eagerly anticipating what NetEase Games will unveil next.
