Marvel Rivals 2.5 Update: Magneto’s New Cyborg Skin Might Be His Coolest Yet, Here’s How to Unlock It

Magneto Goes Full Cyborg with New Binary Sword Skin

Marvel Rivals is heating things up in Season 2.5 with the reveal of a brand-new Magneto skin that’s turning heads across the community. The Binary Sword skin transforms the iconic master of magnetism into a sleek, Ultron-infected cyborg, fusing his mutant powers with a high-tech, villainous twist. It’s part of the new Combat Chest and has already earned praise from fans, with many calling it one of the best Magneto looks in the game so far.

 

 

What’s the Combat Chest All About?

The Combat Chest is Marvel Rivals' latest seasonal bundle and comes packed with cosmetic goodies. It’s set to cost 690 Lattice, which is roughly seven bucks, and includes not just Magneto’s Binary Sword, but also two other full costume bundles, plus extra emotes and mood icons to round things out. Like a mini battle pass, it offers a premium track for those who want to snag the cooler loot.

 

 

Free Skins? Say No More

If you’re not ready to spend just yet, there’s still stuff to earn. The Cerebro Database II event is offering Hawkeye’s Binary Arrow skin totally free if you participate and complete the requirements. It’s a nice bonus for players grinding the game without dipping into their wallets.

Watch and Earn with Twitch Drops

More ways to earn rewards? You got it. Marvel Rivals is dropping a new Twitch campaign called Galacta’s Will, which comes with a bundle focused on Emma Frost. All you have to do is watch qualifying streams for a set amount of time and boom—free cosmetics. Perfect if you're the type to multitask while leveling up your style.
