Summary
- 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 launch on January 30. This exciting addition coincides with the PC debut of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, a first-party PlayStation title developed by Insomniac Games. In addition to the Spider-Man skin, Marvel Rivals is also set to release new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange on January 17.
In Marvel Rivals, Spider-Man plays the role of a Duelist, tasked with maximizing damage output during matches. With a challenging five-star difficulty rating, mastering Spider-Man requires skill and practice. Players can utilize Spider-Man's web-zip and web-swing abilities to navigate the map swiftly, engaging and disengaging from combat with ease. His toolkit includes web-based attacks that allow him to pull enemies close or deliver powerful uppercuts for knockouts. Fans can earn rewards by playing Spider-Man in the recent Midnight Features quests of Season 1.
NetEase Games took to Twitter to announce the upcoming addition of the Advanced Suit 2.0 as a legendary skin in Marvel Rivals, sparking immediate excitement among gamers. The voice of Spider-Man, Yuri Lowenthal, lends authenticity to the skin, enhancing its appeal. However, the announcement has left some fans divided, with some preferring the leaked Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin rumored to be coming to the game.
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 large, iconic white spider symbol that is a hallmark of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While the community is eager to get their hands on this new cosmetic, concerns have been raised about its potential cost, given the high price tags of other MCU skins in Marvel Rivals. Legendary skin bundles typically cost 2,200 Units, but the MCU versions of Spider-Man and Iron Man skins are priced at 2,600 Units.
For those looking to quickly accumulate Units in Marvel Rivals, completing the game's Heroic Journey achievements is a smart strategy. By tackling these challenges, players can earn up to 1,500 Units and unlock skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skins available in the game's shop. As more exciting cosmetics are on the horizon, fans are eagerly anticipating what NetEase Games will unveil next.
