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 release on January 30. This coincides with the PC debut of Spider-Man 2, a first-party PlayStation title developed by Insomniac Games. In addition, Marvel Rivals will introduce new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange on January 17.
In Marvel Rivals, Spider-Man is classified as a Duelist, focused on dealing maximum damage. With a difficulty rating of five stars, he is among the most challenging characters to master. Players can utilize Spider-Man's web-zip and web-swing abilities to navigate the map swiftly, engaging and disengaging from combat with ease. His capabilities include webbing enemies, pulling them close, and delivering 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 on Twitter, revealing that the Advanced Suit 2.0 will be available as a legendary skin in Marvel Rivals. The news was met with enthusiasm, particularly because Yuri Lowenthal voices Spider-Man in both games. However, some fans are conflicted, torn between the Advanced Suit 2.0 and a rumored Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin.
Marvel Rivals Announces the Release of the Advanced Suit 2.0
The Advanced Suit 2.0 retains the iconic red and blue color scheme, highlighted by the distinctive large white spider symbol characteristic of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many are eager to add this cosmetic to their collection, concerns about its price persist, given that legendary MCU skins in Marvel Rivals, like those of Spider-Man and Iron Man, cost 2,600 Units, compared to the usual 2,200 Units for other legendary skins.
For those looking to quickly amass Units in Marvel Rivals, completing the game's Heroic Journey achievements is advisable. These challenges can reward players with up to 1,500 Units, along with skins for Storm and Star-Lord. Units and Lattice can then be used to purchase various skins from the in-game shop. As Marvel Rivals continues to expand its cosmetic offerings, fans eagerly anticipate what NetEase Games will unveil next.
