Marvel Rivals distinguishes itself in the realm of hero shooters by adopting a captivating third-person perspective. This unique viewpoint allows players to fully appreciate the intricate and vibrant character skins available throughout the game, moving beyond the limitations often seen in similar titles.
Given the rich history of costume transformations among Marvel’s iconic heroes and villains, Marvel Rivals offers an impressive array of skins. These skins range from authentic adaptations of cinematic and comic book designs to brand-new creations specifically tailored for the game, ensuring that every character is fashion-forward.
It’s important to note that the insights in this article were compiled during Season 0 of Marvel Rivals, so the content may evolve with subsequent game updates.
10. Avengers: Endgame
Iron Man
Throughout the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Iron Man has donned a variety of suits, each showcasing technological advancements and escalating complexity. The pinnacle of this evolution is the nanotech suit featured in Avengers: Endgame, now available for use in Marvel Rivals. Players can activate a dramatic MVP introduction that vividly recalls the climactic battles of the film.
This iconic suit, characterized by the striking MCU faceplate and its expertly crafted armor, echoes the unforgettable declaration: “I am Iron Man.”
9. Bast’s Chosen
Black Panther
Wakanda, known for its unparalleled technological prowess, also boasts a rich cultural legacy traced back to divine origins. The Panther Goddess, Bast, blesses Wakanda’s rulers, enabling King T’Challa and his predecessors to embody the Black Panther.
This fierce ensemble serves as a reminder that true strength comes from within. T’Challa’s prowess would be unwavering even in the absence of his impressive armor.
8. Green Scar
Hulk
When Earth’s mightiest heroes grew weary of Hulk’s destructive tendencies, they sent him hurtling into space. This fateful journey led him to Sakaar, where he ultimately rose to power as its formidable ruler.
The Green Scar outfit captures Hulk’s reign as king, adorned in gladiatorial armor that embodies his fierce battles. Who would have imagined that a colossal, rage-fueled being could ascend to such prominence?
7. Deadpool & Wolverine
Wolverine
Wolverine’s hallmark appearance is undeniably his classic blue and yellow suit. Unfortunately, his portrayal in the early 2000s often featured less iconic attire. However, with the recent Deadpool & Wolverine film and this game, we are reminded why the yellow suit should be Wolverine’s go-to look.
Marvel Rivals champions this ethos by ensuring Wolverine’s signature costume is not just an option but a celebrated choice.
6. Master of Magnetism
Magneto
Magneto’s aesthetic has evolved over the years, adapting to both his increasingly complex character arc and shifting stylistic trends. While his current design in Marvel Rivals is compelling, many fans still favor his classic red and purple outfit.
This ensemble harks back to Magneto’s villainous days, unleashing chaos and commanding the Sentinels with chilling confidence.
5. Mohawk Rock
Storm
Known as a fashion icon, Storm consistently impresses with her wardrobe choices. Over time, she has rocked a variety of styles, but the punk rock mohawk and leather outfit from the early ’80s X-Men comics are particularly memorable.
In Marvel Rivals, this iconic look makes a triumphant return, reminding players that Storm can pull off any ensemble with effortless grace.
4. Punisher 2099
The Punisher
The 1990s saw the emergence of the 2099 comics, featuring futuristic interpretations of beloved heroes in a gritty cyberpunk setting. Among them was Jacob “Jake” Gallows, the Punisher 2099, who utilized firearms and enhanced abilities to dispense his unique form of justice.
In Marvel Rivals, the Punisher 2099 outfit is even more intensified, showcasing an exaggerated skull faceplate with fiery laser eyes for a truly striking appearance.
3. Galactic Fangs
Hawkeye
While many skins in Marvel Rivals draw from Marvel’s extensive legacy, several also feature original designs crafted for Battle Pass rewards. One such design is Hawkeye’s Galactic Fangs, a stunning suit crafted from Vibranium.
This battlesuit recalls Hawkeye’s classic look, distinctly purple with impressive details like a large cowl and an “H” emblazoned on the belt. If Marvel sought to give Hawkeye a modern makeover for the big screen, this is the aesthetic we would envision.
2. Incognito Dolphin
Jeff The Land Shark
In one of his comedic antics, Jeff the Land Shark decided to hit the beach but opted for a dolphin costume to alleviate any anxiety among his hero companions about his shark nature. They appreciated the thoughtfulness!
Jeff’s regular blue costume is reimagined in a playful, fuzzy pink hue, enhancing his cuteness while perfectly matching his companion, Gwenpool.
1. Mister Knight
Moon Knight
Traditionally, Moon Knight’s striking attire, complete with hood and cape, is designed to instill fear in his adversaries. Yet, he recognizes the need for a more approachable facade in certain situations.
Thus, he created his “Mister Knight” persona, allowing him to engage with more civilized crowds without intimidating them. Despite his fierce nature as a vigilante, he can transform into a polished figure when the situation calls for it.
Whether “Mister Knight” is merely a suave outfit or an alternate personality is open to interpretation, but the distinction matters little when it comes to the character’s allure.
