NetEase Games hasn’t revealed which costumes players may see added to Phoenix’s closet in the future, but it has given players a fresh look at other cosmetics coming to the game soon.

It also showed off skins for Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and The Thing, which will be part of an upcoming collaboration with the MCU filmThe Fantastic Four: First Steps. After that, players will be able to get their hands on new Phoenix-themed skins for both Magik and Black Panther.
While many people seem to be enjoying the addition of Phoenix to the popular hero shooter’s ever-expanding roster, some people are unhappy abouther synergy with Wolverine inMarvel Rivals. With the launch of Season 3, NetEase Games introduced a team-up between Phoenix and Wolverine. When paired up, Phoenix enhances Wolverine’s Feral Leap ability, covering the mutant in flames. This allows him to deal continuous percentage damage to foes around him, and it even grants him lifesteal while dealing damage to enemies. The combination both boosts his damage potential and makes him much harder to eliminate, making him a bigger threat to Vanguards than ever before. With a whole new season to enjoy and even more content just around the corner, many fans are feeling optimistic about the future ofMarvel Rivals.
