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 be released on January 30. This coincides with the PC launch of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, a first-party PlayStation title developed by Insomniac Games. Additionally, Marvel Rivals will introduce new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange on January 17.
In Marvel Rivals, Spider-Man serves as a Duelist, focusing on dealing maximum damage during matches. With a challenging five-star difficulty rating, mastering Spider-Man requires skill. Players can utilize his web-zip and web-swing abilities to navigate the map swiftly, engaging and disengaging from combat with ease. Spider-Man can web enemies, pull them towards him, or deliver powerful uppercuts for knockouts. A recent quest in Season 1's Midnight Features encourages players to use Spider-Man to earn rewards.
NetEase Games made the exciting announcement via Twitter, revealing that the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will be available as a legendary skin in Marvel Rivals starting January 30. Yuri Lowenthal, who voices Spider-Man in both games, adds to the excitement. However, fans are divided, with some torn between choosing the Advanced Suit 2.0 and a 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, a signature of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While fans eagerly anticipate this new cosmetic, concerns about its potential cost arise, given that legendary MCU skins in Marvel Rivals, like those for Spider-Man and Iron Man, are priced at 2,600 Units, compared to other legendary skin bundles at 2,200 Units.
For those eager to acquire Units quickly, completing the Heroic Journey achievements in Marvel Rivals is recommended. These challenges can reward players with up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. Units and Lattice can then be used to purchase skins from the in-game shop. With a lineup of exciting cosmetics on the horizon, fans are eagerly anticipating what NetEase Games has in store next.
