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: the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2, launching January 30th. Interestingly, 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 known for high damage output and challenging gameplay. His in-game mobility, utilizing web-zipping and swinging, allows for quick attacks and escapes. Abilities include webbing enemies, pulling them close, or delivering powerful uppercuts. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest rewards players for using Spider-Man.
NetEase Games unexpectedly announced the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin via Twitter. The reveal generated significant excitement, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal's voice acting in both games. However, some fans are debating between this skin and a leaked Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin potentially coming to 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 large white spider symbol synonymous with Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many anticipate this cosmetic addition, concerns exist about its price. Many legendary skin bundles cost 2,200 Units, but MCU skins like Spider-Man and Iron Man cost 2,600 Units.
To quickly acquire Units in Marvel Rivals, players can complete Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges reward up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase skins from the in-game shop. With numerous exciting cosmetics on the horizon, fans eagerly await NetEase Games' next announcements.
