Marvel Rivals is the brand-new cooperative shooter developed by NetEase Games and took off pretty fast among fans of the Marvel universe. The game allows participation in team battles for one's favorite superheroes and villains. Equipping a character with skins to change one's look is included among its distinctive features. 

While most cosmetic items can be obtained for in-game currency, players are also able to access free skins, which become available via various promotions, event participation, or with the use of special codes. Today, this article is going to review all free skins available in Marvel Rivals and the ways to get them.

Skins

Skins play a big role in Marvel Rivals and greatly increase gameplay options while improving interaction with the game. Since skins do not affect any combat stat, having them strictly for aesthetics alone is a bit much.

Skins first allow players to customize their favorite Marvel superheroes and villains, making them unique. It means that players can show their individuality and loyalty to certain heroes or factions because of various visual styles. For example, Scarlet Spider for Spider-Man and Armor Model 42 for Iron Man mean players can add variety to how the team looks on the battlefield.

Second, skins make players participate in the game and its events more actively. Many skins are provided for participating in some event in the game or for passing a certain milestone; this serves as a motivation for players to play more and explore all aspects of the game. For example, Will of Galacta (Magneto) is available through Twitch Drops.

Thus, skins make it not only aesthetic but also give some incentive to go deeper into the very process of the game. Such a unique experience attracts new players, creating a world of Marvel Rivals.
