Marvel Rivals and Captain America: Brave New World are collaborating to offer fans a skin to enjoy their gaming experience. At first, it was revealed that moviegoers watching the upcoming movie in Regal Cinemas in opening week would receive an exclusive in-game bundle. In it, a “mystery costume” was expected, but the revelation about it led to fans’ disappointment.
Here are details on what Marvel Rivals’ fans can expect from Captain America: Brave New World bundle and what exactly made fans upset.
Does Red Hulk come in Marvel Rivals’ Captain America: Brave New World skin?
No, Red Hulk likely won’t come in Marvel Rivals as the new Captain America: Brave New World skin.
Miller Ross, a part of Marvel Rivals’ Creators program, took to X (formerly Twitter) to answer fans’ questions related to the game’s newly launched bundle. He revealed that upon purchasing tickets in the opening week at Regal Cinemas, fans are entitled to a digital in-game nameplate, spray, and a “mystery costume.” While he was bound by marketing rights issues, he assured fans that the mystery skin is not new. It already exists in the game and is available to purchase. This revelation led to fans’ hopes being shattered as many were expecting the mystery skin to be Red Hulk. However, after Ross’ confirmation, it is safe to say that Red Hulk’s skin cannot be expected.
Why are fans angry with Marvel Rivals’ Captain America: Brave New World skin?
Fans are unhappy as NetEase Games confirmed that a Red Hulk skin won’t be coming to Marvel Rivals.
Some theories suggest that Captain America’s Galactic Talon outfit will make its way to the game. This disappointed many who were waiting for a Red Hulk Skin. However, Ross has clarified why they didn’t opt for a new costume and went for an existing one instead.
He adds, “Marvel Rivals has only been on the market for about 2 months now…While its success has attracted many promotional opportunities, some are simply too short notice to deliver something larger scale. At least, that’s the impression I’m under from speaking to the team.” However, he assured fans that some exciting stuff is lined up for them in the future.
