Marvel is gearing up for another exciting Swimsuit Special comic book release, and fans of NetEase Games’ Marvel Rivals are in for a treat with anticipated swimsuit skins to enhance their summer gaming experience.
A recent post on the Marvel website has unveiled tantalizing details about the upcoming Marvel Swimsuit Special: Friends, Foes, and Rivals #1, set to hit the shelves on July 9. This edition promises a delightful break for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes from their world-saving duties, but the real excitement stems from the sneak peek at designs intended for Marvel Rivals.

According to the description, "Roxxon Comics is at it again when they release their own UNAUTHORIZED SWIMSUIT SPECIAL," prompting Wasp to rally Marvel's heroes for a global swimwear fashion shoot. The comic teases fans with "splash page after splash page of gorgeous art," accompanied by a compelling story that adds a fun twist to the visual feast.
While specific details about the launch timeline and character inclusion remain under wraps, the thematic focus of the special strongly suggests that summer-themed cosmetics are on the horizon. As we approach the release, more information is expected to surface, hopefully shedding light on how these designs will integrate with Marvel Rivals.

Speculating on the launch timing for these summer outfits, clues from Marvel Rivals Season 2, which introduced Emma Frost and the Hellfire Gala, suggest a potential release with Season 3 around July or August. This timing aligns perfectly with NetEase's planned schedule and the end of summer, providing players with fresh content just in time to enjoy the last of the warm weather.
Moreover, Season 3 will usher in a new era of shorter, two-month seasons for Marvel Rivals, promising a new playable hero each month. This accelerated pace of content delivery is set to keep the community engaged and excited.
