If you’re diving into the fast-paced world of Marvel Rivals, you’ve probably come across the term Unstable Molecules — but what exactly are they, and how do they impact the game?
What are Unstable Molecules?
In Marvel lore, Unstable Molecules are a fictional scientific breakthrough created by Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic). They’re used in the Marvel universe to make clothing and gear that adapts to the wearer's superpowers — whether it’s stretching, bursting into flames, or becoming invisible.
This material is famously worn by the Fantastic Four and is a staple of superhuman fashion.
In Marvel Rivals, Unstable Molecules take on a more gameplay-oriented role.

Marvel Rivals Color Customization
Marvel Rivals has introduced a new color customization feature for character costumes, but it comes with a catch — players will need to use a new in-game currency that is currently only available through microtransactions. This has sparked mixed reactions from the community.
Initially, many players believed that alternate color variations would be included with the purchase of skins, especially legendary ones. However, NetEase Games clarified that players must visit the in-game store and spend this exclusive currency to unlock color options, separate from the base skin purchase.
This shift marks a departure from Marvel Rivals' previously generous reputation, leaving some fans disappointed by the monetization of cosmetic customization.
