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 launch on January 30. This exciting addition coincides with the PC debut of Marvel's Spider-Man 2, a first-party PlayStation title developed by Insomniac Games.

In Marvel Rivals, Spider-Man plays the role of a Duelist, focusing on dealing maximum damage during matches. With a challenging five-star difficulty rating, mastering Spider-Man requires skill and practice. Players can utilize his web-zip and web-swing abilities to navigate the map swiftly, engaging and disengaging from combat with ease. Spider-Man's arsenal includes webbing enemies, pulling them close, and delivering powerful uppercuts for knockouts. The recent Midnight Features quest in Season 1 encourages players to use Spider-Man to earn rewards.
NetEase Games made the announcement via Twitter, revealing that the Advanced Suit 2.0 will be available as a legendary skin in Marvel Rivals on January 30. The news was met with enthusiasm from the gaming community, especially since Yuri Lowenthal voices Spider-Man in both titles. However, some fans are torn between this new skin and a rumored Lunar New Year Spider-Man skin that may soon appear in 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 prominent white spider symbol that has become a hallmark of Insomniac Games' Spider-Man. While many are eager to obtain this new cosmetic, concerns have arisen regarding its potential cost, given that other legendary MCU skins in Marvel Rivals are priced at 2,600 Units, compared to the standard 2,200 Units for other legendary bundles.
For those eager to quickly accumulate Units in Marvel Rivals, completing the Heroic Journey achievements is a recommended strategy. These challenges allow players to earn up to 1,500 Units and skins for Storm and Star-Lord. Units, along with Lattice, can be used to purchase any skins available in the game's shop. With a variety of exciting cosmetics on the horizon, fans are eagerly anticipating what NetEase Games will unveil next.
