“This Marvel Rivals Skin Is So Rare, You’ll Need a Comic Subscription to Get It!”
Superheroes, symbiotes, and… skins? Marvel is leveling up its multiversal mayhem with a genius crossover that brings together your gaming thumbs and your comic-loving heart. That’s right—Marvel Rivals Season 2 is dropping soon, and to celebrate, Marvel is throwing a party so wild even The Thing needs a new outfit.
Welcome to the “Unlimited Thing” skin era — a chunky, rocky, fantastically fabulous exclusive you’ll only get if you’re tuned into both Marvel Rivals and Marvel Unlimited.
Comic Books and Controller Vibes Collide
Marvel’s not just stopping at epic in-game events for Marvel Rivals Season 2 — they’re bridging the gap between the game and its source material. Enter: Marvel Infinity Comics, now diving head-first into Marvel Rivals lore with an all-new arc tied to the game’s newest season. It’s a double win for fans who love both pew-pew gameplay and classic panel-popping drama.
The new storyline takes place during none other than the Hellfire Gala (fashion, chaos, and mutants—oh my!), set in the always-dramatic Mutant nation of Krakoa. Chapter One of this crossover comic adventure lands on Friday, April 11, with new chapters releasing every Thursday. Your Thursdays just got more mutant-y.
But don’t expect just glitz and glamour—Ultron drones crash the party, forcing heavy-hitters like Emma Frost, Storm, Magik, and Psylocke to slap down the robot rebellion. Yet curiously, Ultron himself is MIA, and you just know he’s got something extra sinister cooking.
How to Get the “Unlimited Thing” Skin in Marvel Rivals
Now for the part you’ve been waiting for—how to make your version of The Thing look even more… Thing-y.
Starting April 25, Marvel Unlimited subscribers will receive a free redemption code for the “Unlimited Thing” skin, making your in-game avatar stand out with comic-book flair. This exclusive cosmetic is only available to paid subscribers of Marvel Unlimited, Marvel’s digital comic subscription service.
Here’s how it works:
Make sure you’re a paid subscriber to Marvel Unlimited.
Ensure your account is active before April 16, 2025.
Marvel will email the code directly to the email linked to your account on April 25.
Enter the code in Marvel Rivals and boom — your Thing is now The Ultimate Thing.
Bonus Perk: 50% Off with Code THING50
Not a subscriber yet? Marvel’s sweetening the deal with a 50% discount on your first two months of Marvel Unlimited. Just use the code THING50 when signing up. But here’s the catch — you must subscribe before April 16 to receive the exclusive skin.
After that? No rock-solid drip for you.
So, whether you’re a comic book completionist, a competitive Rivals warrior, or just someone who really loves alternate skins (no judgment), this crossover has your name carved in stone.
Why This Is a Brilliant Move (Yes, Really)
Let’s be real — this move is marketing genius. Marvel is using the momentum of its hit team shooter game to boost readership of its digital comics, and fans benefit with shiny new rewards. It’s a win-win strategy that not only grows both communities but also bridges the storylines between mediums. If Marvel keeps up this synergy, we might see even deeper integrations of gameplay and canon storytelling.
