Marvel Rivals Adding Skin Based on Spider-Man 2 Game

Marvel Rivals' New Spider-Man Skin: Advanced Suit 2.0 Arrives January 30th

Get ready, Marvel Rivals fans! A 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 launch of the acclaimed PlayStation title. This exciting addition celebrates the game's PC debut. The announcement also includes new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange dropping 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 abilities allow for swift maneuvers in combat, making him a formidable opponent. His moveset includes web-based attacks, enemy pulls, and powerful uppercuts. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest encourages players to utilize Spider-Man to earn rewards.

NetEase Games surprised fans with the Twitter reveal of the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin. The classic red and blue suit, accented by the large white spider emblem, is a highly anticipated addition. While excitement is high, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal's voice acting in both games, some players are debating between this skin and a leaked Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin rumored for the game.

Pricing Concerns and Earning Units

The Advanced Suit 2.0 skin's price remains a point of discussion. Many legendary skins cost 2,200 Units, while MCU skins like Spider-Man and Iron Man are priced higher at 2,600 Units. Players aiming to quickly acquire Units can focus on completing the Heroic Journey achievements, offering up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, combined with Lattice, can be used to purchase skins from the in-game shop. With a promising cosmetic lineup on the horizon, the Marvel Rivals community eagerly awaits future releases from NetEase Games.
