Marvel Rivals Season 1: Unveiling the Malice Invisible Woman Skin
The gaming community is abuzz with the launch of Marvel Rivals Season 1, and the excitement isn't just about new game modes and maps. A particular Sue Storm skin, the Malice outfit, has captured the internet's attention. This guide explains who Malice is and how to obtain this coveted skin.
Who is Malice in Marvel Comics?
The name "Malice" has been used by several characters in Marvel Comics. Some are minor villains, while another is a mutant recruited by Mister Sinister. However, the Malice in Marvel Rivals is an alternate persona of Sue Storm, similar to the Hulk's relationship to Bruce Banner.
Following a miscarriage, a vulnerable Sue Storm falls prey to Psycho-Man's manipulation, unleashing the Malice personality and causing chaos for the Fantastic Four. While she eventually overcomes this with Reed Richards' help, Malice resurfaces during the Fantastic Four's quest for the Infinity Gems with the Silver Surfer. This pivotal event shaped Sue's character arc, leading to Malice's adaptation in the 1990s Fantastic Four animated series ("World Within Worlds" episode).
How to Get the Malice Invisible Woman Skin in Marvel Rivals
NetEase Games clearly found Malice's design compelling enough to include her in Marvel Rivals. This skin will be released alongside Invisible Woman as part of the Season 1 update on January 10th, 2025.
Currently, the exact cost of the Malice skin in Lattice is unknown. However, judging by the pricing of other skins, 2,400 Lattice is a reasonable estimate. Keep in mind that skins often go on sale, so delaying your purchase until a potential price drop might be wise.
It's crucial to note that the Malice skin won't be part of the Season 1 Battle Pass. While ten costumes are unlockable through the Battle Pass, leaks confirm none are alternate styles for Fantastic Four members.
In summary, this guide details Malice's origins and how to acquire the Invisible Woman Malice skin in Marvel Rivals.
Marvel Rivals is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S.
