Marvel Rivals launches Captain America swimsuit skin for July 4 event

NetEase Games’ hero shooter Marvel Rivals released a new “Seaside Sentinel” Captain America costume to mark the United States’ July 4 holiday. The skin swaps Steve Rogers’s classic uniform for an inflatable duck‑shaped shield, a tight mankini and exaggerated jiggle physics.

The release also adds beachwear for Loki, White Fox, Daredevil and Black Widow, and the skins are available for purchase on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Fans on social media reacted with a mix of amusement and criticism, noting the outfit’s overtly sexualized design and comparing it to fan‑made mods.
