Suit Up & Protect The Galaxy In Marvel Rivals' Mantis GOTG-Inspired Cosmetic Skin

The Marvel Rivals global countdown continues to tick away towards the game's full release for consoles and PCs this December. On the back of a major crossover collaboration with several Marvel Games titles and Fortnite announced recently, players can anticipate seeing more Marvel Rivals content appearing elsewhere.

Meanwhile, somewhere across the galaxy, a well-known Guardian was next in line as developer NetEase Games revealed its latest news announcement (h/t Miller Ross) involving this powerful, empathic character. This accompanied a brand new Rivals Assemble video for the Strategist classed hero, Mantis, which a fricken awesome new cosmetic that will be available for her in the future when Marvel Rivals launches.

We're 12 days deep into the global countdown to the official launch of NetEase Games' superhero team-based PvP shooter as the developer continues to provide daily news announcements for all its playable heroes. This included a new playable hero in Moon Knight, available at launch for free, alongside plenty of cosmetic reveals for a myriad of characters, and Mantis now joins the line-up.

The developer posted across the social media channels on 14th November 2024 that this empathic Guardian has a fricken awesome skin awaiting her upon this game's release. And akin to her fellow Guardians, her latest cosmetic is adapted from the character's live-action feature in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), specifically in her last known appearance.

And yes, like Rocket Raccoon, Groot, and Peter Quill / Star-Lord, Mantis' newest cosmetic skin is from a suit the character donned in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. However, it remains unclear how all these recently announced skins can be obtained, which it may be from completing Galacta's Quest missions or from the in-game store which we'll update these pages once clarification has been announced.
