Marvel Rivalsplayers can transform their favorite heroes into their favorite characters, icons, and even famous singers thanks to a few nifty mods. While mods are nothing new to the title, more and more hero customization options have been popping up by the day, allowing players to choose from a plethora of anime protagonists, legendary pop singers, and more.
The three mods found around a week ago now are all created by different modders.The Stitch mod for Rocket was created by userHallow, the Ariana Grande mod for Luna Snow was made byYumii, and the iconic and horrifying Art the Clown mod for Wolverine was created byVinnyHaw.While these are not the only mods to change the appearance of heroes inMarvel Rivals, these are newer ones that players may not have seen yet.
Marvel Rivals Is The Perfect Game For Modding
The Options Are Pretty Much Endless
While there are several in-game skins to choose from inMarvel Rivals,the ability to morph into iconic characters from other franchises is something fans can’t seem to get enough of. Turning Jeff the Land Shark into the iconicChainsaw Mancharacter Pochita seems to be a fan favorite currently, but with these new mods popping up every day, that may not last very long. The process for adding these “skins” to the game is extremely simple, making it easy to implement for even the most novice mod users.
Marvel Rivals Leaks Tease New Character & Maps
A leaker has shared that Marvel Rivals will potentially be seeing the addition of Valkyrie into the game, alongside 6 new maps and other exciting bits
Nexus Mods is full of different mods such as the ones mentioned above and many more.Iron Fist can be given voice lines from Goku, while Scarlet Witch can even holler “Eat Your Vegetables!“rather than her normal ultimate voice line. For those more focused on costumes and skins, there are plenty more there as well, including Among UsRocket Raccoon, WarMachine Iron Man, Thanos Thor, and even Goku Iron Fist. There are so many possibilities for mods such as this, as there are plenty of characters, idols, pop stars, musicians, and more to choose from for modders and creators.
Our Take: Marvel Rivals Can Learn A Lot From Its Creative Fans
Maybe More In-Game Costumes Are Needed
While the title was just released last month, there are quite a fewHero costumes to choose from, but some are a bit on the lackluster side. The holiday-themed skins that were released for Rocket, Venom, and Groot were quite interesting, but some costumes are just recolors of the original, and it seems that fans want more.NetEase could take a page out of the modder’s playbooks and curate in-game skins in the same way, using characters and icons that players would enjoy –just like they do inFortnite.
The creativity of fans will never cease to amaze me, as the customization options within Nexus Mods appear to be endless already. I will admit if I played Wolverine, that the Art the Clown mod would be first on my list, so maybe the developers ofMarvel Rivalscan take a look at the number of downloads on certain mods and create a costume in their likeness down the line. For now, fans can get their fill with the use of mods, and continue to enjoy all that the title has to offer.
