Spider-Man 2 Skin Swings Into Marvel Rivals

Marvel Rivals' New Spider-Man Skin: Advanced Suit 2.0 Arrives January 30th

Get ready, Marvel Rivals fans! A 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. Alongside this, new Mantis and Doctor Strange skins will drop 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 quick tactical maneuvers, making him a formidable opponent. He can web enemies, pull them close, or deliver powerful uppercuts for a knockout. Currently, a Season 1 Midnight Features quest even encourages players to utilize Spider-Man to earn rewards.

NetEase Games surprised players with the Twitter announcement of the Advanced Suit 2.0 skin. The reveal generated considerable excitement, particularly as Yuri Lowenthal voices Spider-Man in both Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Marvel Rivals. However, some fans 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 retains the classic red and blue color scheme, but features the prominent white spider emblem synonymous with Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While anticipation is high, concerns exist about the potential cost. Legendary skins typically range from 2,200 to 2,600 Units (MCU skins are at the higher end).

Earning Units in Marvel Rivals

Players aiming to acquire Units efficiently can tackle the Heroic Journey achievements. Completing these challenges offers up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. These Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skin in the in-game shop. With a steady stream of exciting cosmetics on the way, the future of Marvel Rivals looks bright.
