Spider-Man 2 Game Skin Joins Marvel Rivals

Summary

• Marvel Rivals will debut a new skin based on Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Advanced Suit 2.0, launching January 30th, coinciding with the game's PC release.
• New Mantis and Doctor Strange skins arrive in Marvel Rivals on January 17th.

Marvel Rivals surprised fans with the announcement of an Advanced Suit 2.0 skin from Marvel's Spider-Man 2, arriving January 30th—the same day the game launches on PC. This is noteworthy, as Spider-Man 2 is a PlayStation exclusive developed by Insomniac Games. Also launching on January 17th are new skins for Mantis and Doctor Strange.

Spider-Man, a five-star Duelist in Marvel Rivals, focuses on high damage output. His challenging gameplay involves utilizing his superior mobility—web-zipping and web-swinging—to quickly engage and disengage from combat. He can web enemies, pull them close, or deliver powerful uppercuts for KOs. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest rewards players for using Spider-Man.

NetEase Games' surprise Twitter announcement confirmed the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin's arrival on January 30th. The reveal generated excitement, particularly given Yuri Lowenthal's voice acting in both games. However, some fans are debating between this skin and a leaked Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin potentially coming to Marvel Rivals.

Marvel Rivals Announces the Release of the Advanced Suit 2.0

The Advanced Suit 2.0 boasts the classic red and blue color scheme, accented by the large, iconic white spider symbol synonymous with Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many anticipate this cosmetic addition, concerns exist regarding its price. Legendary skin bundles typically cost 2,200 Units, while MCU skins like Spider-Man and Iron Man are priced at 2,600 Units.

Players aiming to quickly acquire Units in Marvel Rivals should consider completing the Heroic Journey achievements. These challenges reward up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase skins from the in-game shop. With numerous exciting cosmetics on the horizon, fans eagerly await NetEase Games' next announcements.
