Marvel Rivals Gets Suit from PlayStation's Spider-Man 2 Later This Month

Marvel Rivals welcomes an unexpected crossover: the Advanced Suit 2.0 from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 is joining the game as a new skin!

PlayStation made the announcement on X/Twitter, showcasing NetEase Games' adaptation of this iconic suit for their hero shooter.

This stylish Spider-Man suit, originally designed for Insomniac Games' Marvel's Spider-Man, has appeared in all three games of the series. Its distinctive white spider symbol makes it instantly recognizable. This collaboration with Sony and their console-exclusive superhero game is a pleasant surprise. The Advanced Suit 2.0 will be available in the in-game store on January 30th, coinciding with the PC release of Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

Marvel Rivals, launched in December, already boasts numerous unlockable suits, but this Spidey suit stands out. Its connection to the popular PlayStation series and the return of Yuri Lowenthal as the voice of Spider-Man (Peter Parker) adds to its appeal. Lowenthal voiced Peter Parker in all three Insomniac Spider-Man games and lends his voice to the Marvel Rivals version. Players acquiring the suit on January 30th will find it familiar and effective.

NetEase's inclusion of the Advanced Suit 2.0 provides additional content for players alongside the Season 1: Eternal Night Falls release. This season introduced Mister Fantastic and the Invisible Woman from the Fantastic Four as playable characters, with The Thing and Human Torch arriving shortly. Creative director Guangyun Chen has promised at least one new hero every six weeks.

While awaiting the new Spider-Man suit, explore player-created custom skins, the Season 1 balance changes, and how some players use the Invisible Woman's abilities to identify potential bots.
