For those eager to amass Units in Marvel Rivals, focusing on the game’s Heroic Journey achievements can be beneficial. Gamers can earn up to 1,500 Units and exclusive skins for characters like Storm and Star-Lord as they complete challenges. These earned Units can be paired with Lattice to purchase various skins available in the in-game shop. With a plethora of exciting cosmetics on the horizon, players are eagerly anticipating future announcements from NetEase Games.
