Marvel Rivals Is Giving Summer Skins To Black Cat, Bucky, Storm, And More
Marvel Rivals Is Getting Another Batch Of Swimsuit Costumes For Season 9.5
Marvel Rivals has established a well-earned reputation for being a bit of a gooner game, and the game's cast of characters are pretty much all conventionally attractive barring the animals, plants, symbiotes, and maybe Punisher. A lot of that is down to the game's skins, plenty of which show off a lot of skin, especially on the female characters.
We also have over a dozen heroes who are rocking swimsuit costumes right now too, and just to make sure we haven't all forgotten about the game's gooner tendencies, we're getting another batch when Season 9.5 drops this month.
Marvel Rivals Is Getting Six New Summer Skins
Outlined in the latest developer video, six new heroes will be getting summer skins, so you don't have to worry about Luna Snow getting yet another. These heroes are Star Lord, Winter Soldier, Scarlet Witch, Black Cat, Storm, and Magik, so it's an all-DPS lineup this time around. Sorry if you're a support or tank main, I guess.
In any case, you can see all the concept art of the costumes part way through the video, and the Storm summer skin will be very welcome to all of those players that have been begging for the Goddess of Thunder to start getting more love.
Unfortunately, we don't get any more information about these costumes besides their release date, as it's been revealed that they'll start hitting the store after an update that launches on August 13. We have no idea how they'll come to the store, but I imagine it will be a mixture of straight forward purchases with a couple of gatcha events thrown in for good measure, because NetEase loves those now.
We also don't know which of these skins will be Legendaries, though my money is on Black Cat, Magik, and maybe Winter Soldier. Star Lord, Storm, and Scarlet Witch's costumes all look a little simplistic to me, and you know that NetEase is going to go all out on a Black Cat swimsuit skin. The money earned from that will probably fund Season 10 alone.
