Marvel Officially Unveils Spider-Man's Newest And Most Original Costume In 64 Years

Published Nov 9, 2026, 6:58 AM EST Sharmila is an engineer-turned-gaming hardware journalist and freelance contributor at ScreenRant who has been covering the gaming and tech industry since 2021. While she first built her expertise writing about video games, she has since pivoted towards gaming hardware, with a focus on PC components, peripherals, handhelds, and performance-driven tech. When she’s not testing gear or writing about the latest hardware trends, she can usually be found diving into competitive shooters or keeping up with the evolving esports scene. Spider-Man has worn everything from the black symbiote suit to futuristic armor, but his latest look gives Peter Parker something he has never quite had before: the power of Thor. Marvel has officially revealed the Worthy Spider-Man costume for Marvel Rivals, putting the friendly neighborhood hero in a rather unusual position as he takes up Mjolnir. The new costume was showcased in an official trailer released on November 3. Developed by NetEase Games, Marvel Rivals is bringing the God of Thunder’s influence to its web-slinging Duelist, with the trailer showing Spider-Man wielding Thor’s legendary hammer. A striking change from the character’s familiar red-and-blue appearance, it’s one that gives this version of Peter Parker a distinct identity. The design takes inspiration from Thor’s traditional look, incorporating elements associated with the Asgardian hero into Spider-Man’s appearance. The costume imagines what the wall-crawler might look like if he were chosen to carry the power of Mjolnir, and the result? An unusual but beautiful combination of two of the most recognizable Marvel identities. Spider-Man Gets His Own Worthy Moment In Marvel Rivals Of course, the costume has a story behind it. Marvel Rivals introduced a dedicated Spider-Man lore entry titled The Worthy Spider-Man as part of its Season 10.5 update in October. The story connects the character to the game’s ongoing conflict involving Gorr the God Butcher, who’s been hunting down gods across the Chronoverse. Gorr’s arrival in Season 10 brought Thor and the power of Mjolnir to the center of the game’s storyline. The hammer is particularly important because of its connection to the God Tempest, which Gorr seeks to use for his destructive Godbomb. Spider-Man’s new identity gives the ongoing conflict another interesting dimension, placing a familiar street-level hero in the middle of a battle involving some of Marvel's most powerful beings. The game’s official announcement also gives the costume a memorable introduction. Addressing Gorr directly, Spider-Man’s lore references a familiar warning to criminals in New York: "Look out... here comes the Spider-Man..." Of course, the fandom is impressed. When Can Players Get The Worthy Spider-Man Costume? The Worthy Spider-Man costume arrived in Marvel Rivals on November 5, with its store availability beginning on November 6 at 02:00 UTC. The official patch notes list a dedicated costume bundle, an emoji bundle, and separate Ultimate Ability visual effects among the additions. The costume is listed as a Legendary skin, with the standalone bundle priced at 2,200 Units. Players can purchase it from the in-game Store page. Spider-Man first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15 in August 1962, making this reveal arrive 64 years after his comic-book debut. While Marvel has introduced countless alternate versions of the character over the decades, the idea of combining his familiar identity with Thor’s legendary weapon makes this one of the more unusual interpretations to arrive in recent years. You don’t get to see Spider-Man play the part of an Asgardian hero every day. Marvel Rivals has given him that opportunity, and the result is certainly something you’d want to own for your in-game wardrobe.
