In a few days, the global debut of Marvel Rivals, the team-based PvP shooter developed by NetEase Games, is almost here. Lately, the developer has shared their second Developer Vision update, offering insights into gameplay improvements and Anti-Cheat enhancements, and hinted at the arrival of new maps in the near future.

Yesterday’s Developer Vision update was a thrill for me, especially with the unveiling of a fresh Scarlet Witch costume. But what really caught my eye the day after was the tantalizing sneak peek at an “uncanny” and captivating cosmetic skin for one of the X-Men’s most influential figures in Marvel Comics. This intriguing reveal made its way online, gracing us as part of their daily news announcements, as we eagerly await the global launch of Marvel Rivals in December 2024. And guess what? This mesmerizing skin will be up for grabs in-game during that time!

In just under two weeks, we’ll see the complete launch of Marvel Rivals, and following the recent Developer Vision update, the developer has highlighted Erik Lehnsherr, also known as Magneto, as their featured character in the latest daily news announcement. One of Marvel Comics’ most powerful and beloved mutants, Magneto has been showcased prominently on Marvel Rivals’ social media and digital platforms, with his recent appearance in the Rivals Assemble video posted to their YouTube channel on November 25th, 2024.

In a video titled “Magneto-centric Rivals Assemble”, the character was prominently featured for the unveiling of a new cosmetic skin online, which took place on the specified date. The post showcased the “Master of Magnetism” skin, and its caption read, “‘His journey to supremacy started with the conquest of the missile base, proclaiming himself as the leader of all mutants,’” indicating that Magneto’s resolute determination will seek ‘nothing short of total human submission.’

The new in-game cosmetic skin modeled after a character inspired by their appearance in the Uncanny X-Men (1981) #1 comic is set to debut next month on consoles and PCs. At present, there’s no information on how players, particularly Magneto fans, can secure this “unusual” cosmetic skin, but we’ll post updates as soon as details become available.
