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 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 launch of the acclaimed PlayStation title. This exciting addition celebrates the game's PC debut. The announcement also revealed new Mantis and Doctor Strange skins launching 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 tactical maneuvers, making him a formidable combatant. His moveset includes web-based attacks, enemy pulls, and powerful uppercuts. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest even rewards players for using Spider-Man.

NetEase Games surprised fans with the Twitter reveal of the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin, a legendary addition. The news has generated significant excitement, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal's voice acting in both games. However, some players are debating between this new skin and a rumored Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin.

The Advanced Suit 2.0 Skin: A Classic Look with a Modern Twist

The Advanced Suit 2.0 boasts the classic red and blue color scheme, accented by the large, iconic white spider emblem synonymous with Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While anticipation is high, concerns exist about the potential cost. Many legendary skins are priced at 2,200 Units, while some MCU skins (like Spider-Man and Iron Man) reach 2,600 Units.

Players aiming to quickly acquire Units for the new skin can focus on completing Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges offer up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord, which can be used alongside Lattice to purchase skins from the in-game shop. With a promising cosmetic lineup on the horizon, the Marvel Rivals community eagerly awaits NetEase Games' next announcements.
