Marvel Rivals Adding Skin Based on Spider-Man 2 Game

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 comes as a surprise announcement from NetEase Games. The reveal has generated significant buzz among players, particularly given that Yuri Lowenthal voices Spider-Man in both games.

This isn't the only skin drop; Mantis and Doctor Strange skins arrive 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 abilities provide incredible map mobility, allowing for quick engagements and escapes. His moveset includes web-based attacks, enemy pulls, and powerful uppercuts. The current Season 1 Midnight Features quests even incentivize playing Spider-Man.

The Advanced Suit 2.0 skin boasts the classic red and blue Spider-Man design, accented by the large, iconic white spider emblem, a hallmark of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man iteration. While anticipation is high, some players are concerned about the potential cost. While many legendary skins are priced at 2,200 Units, MCU skins like Spider-Man and Iron Man command a higher 2,600 Unit price tag.

Players eager to acquire Units can tackle the Heroic Journey achievements, offering up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord as rewards. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skin in the in-game shop. With a promising roster of cosmetic additions on the way, the future of Marvel Rivals looks vibrant.
