Marvel Rivals: Unlocking the Secrets of Malice and the Invisible Woman Skin

The Marvel Rivals Season 1 launch has generated significant buzz, particularly surrounding a new Sue Storm skin: the Malice costume. This article explains Malice's comic book origins and how to acquire the skin in-game.

Malice in Marvel Comics

Multiple characters have borne the "Malice" moniker in Marvel Comics. While some are minor villains, the version featured in Marvel Rivals is an alternate personality of Sue Storm, mirroring the Hulk's relationship to Bruce Banner.

Emerging after a traumatic miscarriage, Malice is awakened by Psycho-Man, causing chaos for the Fantastic Four. Though temporarily subdued with Reed Richards' help, Malice resurfaces during the Fantastic Four's Infinity Gem quest with the Silver Surfer. This storyline is significant in Sue's character arc, even being adapted into the 1990s Fantastic Four animated series.

NetEase Games clearly favored Malice's design, incorporating her into Marvel Rivals. The skin will be available alongside Invisible Woman's introduction in the Season 1 update, launching January 10th, 2025.

While the exact cost remains unconfirmed, considering previous skin pricing, 2,400 Lattice is a likely price point. Players may wish to wait for potential sales before purchasing.

Crucially, the Malice skin isn't part of the Season 1 Battle Pass. All ten Battle Pass costumes have leaked, and none are alternate Fantastic Four styles.

In summary, this explains Malice's background and how to acquire the Invisible Woman Malice skin in Marvel Rivals.
