How to Get Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals
Hi Rivals!
— Marvel Rivals (@MarvelRivals) April 17, 2025
Customized Color Costumes will cost 600 Unstable Molecules for exchange. Unstable Molecules can be exchanged from Lattice at a 1:1 rate. You must first obtain the costumes before you can customize them. Initially, only a select few costumes will have this feature and…
Unstable Molecules can’t be bought directly. Instead, they’re acquired by converting Lattice, the game’s premium currency, at a 1:1 ratio. One Unstable Molecule costs one Lattice, so yes, real money is involved unless you're earning Lattice through the free Battle Pass.
Here’s a breakdown of Lattice pricing:
- 100 Lattice – $0.99.
- 500 Lattice – $4.99.
- 1,000 Lattice – $9.99.
- 2,180 Lattice – $19.99.
- 5,690 Lattice – $49.99.
- 11,680 Lattice – $99.99.
Currently, there’s no grindable in-game method to earn Unstable Molecules. However, free Battle Pass tiers occasionally include Lattice, so patient players can gradually save up and unlock customisations over time.
