Summary
Wolverine is getting an alternateMarvel Rivalsskin based on his appearance in this year’s blockbuster hitDeadpool and Wolverine. Logan was one of the most recent characters confirmed forMarvel Rivals, which will finally launch in full on December 6. The X-Men’s flagship member has a new look in NetEase’s online multiplayer battle royale, sporting a yellow and blue jacket, a black shirt, and dark jeans.
However, while many ofMarvel Rivals’ character designs have been well-received by fans, gamers have been less than thrilled about Wolverine’s new threads. Ever since theMarvel Rivalsversion of Wolverinewas revealed late last week, players have taken to social media to voice their opinions on Logan’s divisive look, with some calling the “jacket and tank top” outfit generic and others questioning the hero’s hairstyle and body proportions. Some Marvel Rivals players don’t mind this take on Wolverine though, and others have simply said that they’ll wait for an alternate skin to be released.
At least one of those alternateMarvel Rivalscostumes has been revealed for Wolverine, and it isone of his most popular looksin recent years. Twitch user and gaming streamer Sacriel checked out theMarvel RivalsStore page while streaming the game, giving viewers a look at some of the alternate skins that will be available to purchase whenMarvel Rivalsgoes live on December 6. Included in this list is Wolverine’s yellow and blue attire fromDeadpool and Wolverine, which was already met with high praise from moviegoers for finally putting Hugh Jackman in a comic-accurate costume. It will cost 1800 ofMarvel Rivals’ yet-unnamed currency.
Marvel Rivals Includes MCU Wolverine Skin
Wolverine isn’t the only hero with an MCU-inspiredalternate skin inMarvel Rivals, as the store page also offers Black Widow’s white armor from 2021’sBlack Windowfilm, Loki’s green robes from the second season of Disney Plus’sLokiseries, Scarlet Witch’s costume fromDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,and a bundle ofGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3skins for Star-Lord, Mantis, Rocket Racoon, and Groot. There will also be armored skins for Captain America and Hawkeye, as well as a gladiator-like “Green Scar” outfit for Hulk.
This seems to be just a small taste of the alternate content that will be available to purchase, and there have already beenseveral freeMarvel Rivalsskinsconfirmed for the game’s full launch later this week. This will allow players to choose a different look for their favorite character - which will certainly be a boon for fans who aren’t too keen on the default appearance for heroes like Wolverine.
