Marvel Rivals: How to Unlock and Customize Player Skins Guide

Here's a quick guide on how to unlock and customize player skins in Marvel Rivals.

One of the best things about Marvel Rivals is seeing your favorite heroes in different clothes. There are tons of skins, from simple costume swaps to ones based on other Marvel characters. If you want your hero to stand out, you can go into the customization menu and get new skins for them and put them on during a match.

How to Get Skins

You can see the skins available in the Heroes section of the game. Pick a hero you want to customize, then browse through the cosmetics they have available.

Not all skins are acquired the same way. Some are buyable from the in-game store, some are available from events, seasonal content or other rewards; some are just there to be appreciated. So, if you’re waiting for a specific skin, it’s worth checking the game regularly.

How to Unlock Skins

The easiest way to get many skins is to buy them from the in-game shop with the right currency. But, you don’t always have to spend money to get cosmetics.

Marvel Rivals features events and time-limited activities that frequently drop skins or other cosmetic rewards. Battle Passes and special events may also contain extra items so check the reward tracks before you spend your currency.

Some cosmetics can be available for a limited time only. If you see something you really like, ask if it’s available instead of assuming it’ll be in the game forever.

How To Outfit A Skin

Once you’ve unlocked a skin, it’s easy to equip it. Go to the Heroes page, select the character whose look you want to change, and open their customization options. Choose the skin you have and put it on. The outfit you choose will then be the outfit you wear the next time you play that hero.

Other Cosmetics Customization

More than just skins can be customized. Depending on what you’ve unlocked, you can also change other cosmetic items tied to your profile or heroes. So, relax for a moment and look through your collection. You may have event or progression rewards that you haven't equipped yet.

Last thoughts

You don’t need to collect skins, but it’s a nice way to make your favorite heroes feel a little more personal. Look out for events, check the store when it refreshes, and check out your unlocked cosmetics from time to time. You could find a new look for a hero you already like playing.
