Marvel Rivals Adds Elastic Twist to Roster

Marvel Rivals Unveils "The Maker," a New Mister Fantastic Skin

Get ready for a villainous twist! Marvel Rivals has just dropped a sneak peek of a brand-new skin for Mister Fantastic: The Maker. This sinister skin will debut alongside the character himself when Season 1 launches on January 10th. Season 1 promises a massive update, including a fresh game mode, new maps, and a host of other exciting additions.

The Maker skin portrays an alternate Reed Richards, hailing from the Ultimate timeline. A far cry from his heroic counterpart, this Mister Fantastic has embraced villainy in his quest for world domination. The skin features a striking design; a slate-colored mask obscures most of his face, punctuated by a blue visor, a result of injuries sustained in a fierce battle with the Human Torch. The suit itself boasts a sleek black and gray aesthetic, accented by glowing blue circles on the chest and back, and dynamically stretches and morphs as he utilizes his powers. He's not alone in his villainous makeover; Invisible Woman will also receive a dark counterpart, Malice.

Marvel Rivals' official Twitter account confirmed The Maker skin's arrival on January 10th, alongside Mister Fantastic's game debut. The announcement highlighted the skin's stylish black and gray design, complete with the distinctive glowing blue accents and face-obscuring mask.
