A significant discovery was made in the Marvel Rivals update files earlier today, the Infinity Gauntlet. This unexpected find raises questions about potential future content. Alongside this, an update was implemented, introducing additional hidden assets.
Luna Snow Skin Bundle and Captain America Infinity War Skin
Excitement surrounds the newly revealed Luna Snow skin bundle, which includes an intricately designed skin, an animated title card, a visually striking spray, and a new emote. Additionally, a trailer was unveiled for the Captain America Infinity War skin, featuring his dual Wakandan shields. The shield appears as a projected barrier when in combat, staying true to its depiction in the film. In the gameplay footage, Captain America can be seen battling in Wakanda, adding to the immersive experience of the update.
The Luna Snow skin has been receiving enthusiastic responses. While her abilities remain unchanged, a neon-like visual effect has been observed, replacing the traditional ice aesthetic. Her ultimate ability maintains the same mechanics, with her standing on an ice platform during execution. The MVP screen showcases her performing on stage, further enhancing the theme of her new look.
The Infinity Gauntlet’s Role in the Marvel Rivals Update
The discovery of Thanos’s Gauntlet led to speculation about a possible introduction of Thanos to the game. However, further analysis suggests that this model is tied to an emote for the Captain America skin. This references a pivotal moment in Avengers: Infinity War when Captain America momentarily holds off Thanos. The emote features a mini version of the Infinity Gauntlet pushing against Captain America, echoing the intense struggle from the film. Unfortunately, Thanos himself does not appear to be making an in-game debut.
