Title: Unveiling the Puzzling Skin for Marvel Rivals in Captain America: Brave New World
Marvel Rivals is experiencing a significant expansion, connecting with various Marvel projects due to its immense popularity as one of the top games worldwide and the most successful Marvel-based video game in a long time. This growth includes a crossover with Captain America: Brave New World, offering players a free "mystery" skin as a reward.
The Captain America: Brave New World collaboration promises a Marvel Rivals digital bundle for Regal Crown Club members who buy movie tickets through their subscription service. Purchasing tickets before February 17 will grant you:
- A Hulk shield spray
- A new Captain America nameplate with vibranium wings
- An enigmatic costume
However, it seems there's only one costume available, and some fans might not be thrilled about it. So, what could this enchanting costume be?
Captain America: Brave New World introduces characters like Sidewinder, The Leader, Captain America, and Red Hulk to the MCU. However, including Sidewinder and Leader skins would not make sense, and NetEase wouldn't dare turn Sam Wilson into a Steve Rogers Captain America skin, as it would alter his character and prevent the use of wings.
So, who is the likely culprit? The answer is clear: Red Hulk. While it would require changing Hulk's skin color and face, it seems to be the most plausible option. But, bringing Red Hulk into the game raises some questions. This character is President Thaddeus Ross' alter ego in the game, and creating an entirely different Thaddeus Ross skin would be a challenge.
If they do go ahead with a Red Hulk skin, it would likely be one of the coolest Hulk skins in the game. However, limiting it to Regal Crown Club members might upset some fans. A Regal Crown Club subscription might not be enticing to many people, as Regal Cinemas are not available everywhere in the US or globally.
But can it be any other skin? My guess is that if it is Red Hulk, they may add it to the game's store later. The promotion does not specify this as an exclusive mystery skin, just that it exists. This could serve as a compromise, ensuring all players have access to it at some point.
If I'm mistaken and it's another skin, please correct me. I'm unsure when this skin will be revealed, but with a month to go, it would definitely stir up more ticket sales.

In light of the collaboration between Marvel Rivals and Captain America: Brave New World, some fans might be disappointed if the enigmatic costume revealed is indeed that of Red Hulk, given that Regal Cinemas are not as widely available as other movie theater chains. Despite the possible challenges in introducing Red Hulk into the game, his inclusion could result in one of the coolest Hulk skins in Marvel Rivals.
