Marvel Rivals has revealed two new skins for the Duelists Magik and Black Panther. The Phoenix Demon and Phoenix Panther outfits give both heroes fiery, battle-ready looks. These skins will be available in the in-game store on July 31 at 7 PM PDT, just before the major Season 3.5 update on August 8.
Fiery New Looks for Duelists
Both skins will be available in the in-game store on July 31 at 7 PM PDT, ahead of the major Season 3.5 update launching August 8.
- Magik – Phoenix Demon: This skin transforms the dark sorceress into a true force of nature. Her new look features a sleek black leather outfit emblazoned with a flaming phoenix emblem across the chest, highlighting her mystical and intimidating aura.
- Black Panther – Phoenix Panther: T’Challa takes on a regal and battle-ready appearance with black-and-gold armor, a flaming crown, and a matching mask, giving off a vibe that players have compared to a cinematic boss battle moment.
Although NetEase has yet to confirm pricing for the skins or a bundle option, many fans are already planning their purchases. One Reddit user noted, “I literally preemptively put in 25 dollars worth of lattice just because I knew this set was coming… For Magik, not BP. I’m not a monster, I’m a dark child.”

- Black Panther Praise: Fans called Phoenix Panther “literally fire” and joked that he looks like a Mortal Kombat character.

The new skins continue Marvel Rivals’ focus on Duelist content. Season 3 already introduced Jean Grey as a Duelist. Blade is also rumored to join the roster during the mid-season update.
