But Marvel’s Avengers’ future is also looking bright, with rumors suggesting that Bucky Barnes’ Winter Soldier could be its next playable character. Recently, a rumor suggested that the battle-damaged Iron Man armor from Avengers: Endgame would be revealed as a cosmetic skin. It seems as if rumors in the community are being validated more and more, and this latest rumor has proved to be true today following an announcement from Marvel’s Avengers.

Marvel’s Avengers has announced that the newest cosmetic skin to appear is none other than Iron Man’s battle-damaged Mark 85 armor, sans helmet, wielding the Infinity Stones in its right gauntlet. This armor is inspired by Avengers: Endgame and is an incredibly unique cosmetic outfit for Iron Man, let alone Marvel’s Avengers, and adds to the limited catalog of Iron Man suits that reveals Tony Stark’s face. This outfit, dubbed Snap, features Tony moments before his death in the MCU, as using the Stones overwhelmed him.
The Snap skin’s detailing looks fantastic and tells the story of what Tony sacrificed in order to rescind what Thanos was capable of achieving with the Stones. Doctor Strange was able to see this future as a plausible scenario and without hinting at what that would look like, Tony took it upon himself to be a self-sacrifice for the universe in Avengers: Endgame.
Marvel’s Avengers may also be in its own endgame, as its acquisition to Embracer Group leaves its future undecided. Embracer may want to shelve the IP for a time due to all the negative reception it has earned since its launch as a multiplayer live-service title, but it is also possible that it finds new life with Embracer that reinvigorates it.
Eager fans can rejoice as this unique skin is available for purchase in the Marketplace tomorrow. It is unknown if battle-damaged skins will become a new trend in Marvel’s Avengers, but there is certainly a wide enough playerbase who would be ecstatic to see other such skins be added in the future.
Marvel’s Avengers is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
