When Marvel Rivals was announced, MCU skins for the game were anticipated by fans. Even if the MCU isn’t as big as it used to be, these movies and shows impacted pop culture. Naturally, players want to see skins from many Marvel films in this free-to-play shooter.
Luckily, the Season 0 announcement for this title confirmed that MCU skins will be coming to the game regularly. The game’s X account has also shared many cosmetics inspired by some MCU movies. More of these tie-in costumes will come as more Seasons are announced, so fans of this cinematic universe are in for a ride.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
Unsurprisingly, the Guardians of the Galaxy characters will have Marvel Rivals MCU skins readily available. Star-Lord, Rocket, Groot, Adam Warlock, and Mantis will sport their sleek blue uniforms from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. If you feel that their default looks are too busy for your liking, these costumes are a must-buy.
Comic book fans know these movie costumes were inspired by the 2008 comic run by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. While it’s a shame that Star-Lord doesn’t have his iconic mask while in this costume, it’s still a great look. Based on the announcement, fans should be able to use these in Season 0.
Thor: Love and Thunder
Thor’s Marvel Rivals MCU skin is based on his most recent movie outing, Love and Thunder. While it’s not the most acclaimed film in the franchise, his blue and gold armor looks great in the game. Fans will look as smashing as Thor when they make their foes eat their hammer with this look.
Gamers hoping to see his more Viking-inspired look from the early parts of Thor: Love and Thunder could still get their wish. More MCU costumes are set to be released in future Seasons. Whatever the case, this MCU costume has style in the game.
Loki Season 2
From the God of Thunder to his mischievous brother, Loki has one of the best Marvel Rivals MCU skins thus far. Viewers who watched the Disney+ show only got to see this attire for the last few minutes in the finale. Now, gamers will be able to use this for as long as they like.
Both comic book fans and norse enthusiasts enjoy this look for Loki, since it feels classic and doesn’t look too modern. While the God of Stories won’t be overpowered in the game, he will look regal when dishing out damage. Considering how many looks he’s had in the past, this is only one of more dashing outfits for the character thar will be added to the shooter.
Moon Knight
One of the more anticipated Marvel Rivals MCU skins, Mr. Knight is an alter ego Marc Spector has in the Moon Knight series. This suit is more subdued than his default appearance, as the mask and suit combo gives him a distinct look that helps him stand out. We expect many Moon Knight fans to pick this up.
Hardcore fans would argue that this isn’t necessarily inspired by the Disney+ show but by the six-issue comic run by Warren Ellis and Declan Shalvey. Either way, this is an iconic look for this character and we’re excited to see it in the shooter.
