How to get Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals

Marvel Rivals’ continued evolution as a live-service hero shooter periodically adds new features to shake up the game or improve it for players, and season two has added yet another new one.

Costume Color Customization was added in the April 17 update for the game, letting players choose palette swaps for specific skins, including several fan favorites. But with the new feature also came something else new called Unstable Molecules.

Here’s everything there is to know about Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals.

What are Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals?

Unstable Molecules is a currency in Marvel Rivals that is used to purchase new costume colors for specific costumes in the game. At launch, just four specific skins have color customization. This means you must own the skin in question and then also purchase the color for it.

Unfortunately, the colors are tied to these specific skins. They are costume recolors for a limited selection, for a price.

Here’s what there is so far:

• Luna Snow
  • Costume: Mirae 2099
  • Color: Plasma Pulse
• Magik
  • Costume: Punkchild
  • Color: Rosy Resilience
• Psylocke
  • Costume: Vengeance
  • Color: Phantom Purple
• Winter Soldier
  • Costume: Revolution
  • Color: Winter’s Wrath

How to get Unstable Molecules in Marvel Rivals

At the time of writing, Unstable Molecules are only available as a one-to-one conversion from Lattice, which is the premium paid currency in Marvel Rivals. The only way to get new skin recolors, like the one above, is to purchase Lattice and then convert it.

Each skin recolor costs 600 Unstable Molecules (600 Lattice), which works out to about $6. However, NetEase Games says it will be introducing ways to earn Unstable Molecules in season three, which is set to begin in July.

It’s unknown yet how Unstable Molecules will be earned, but it’s possible that it could be added to the battle pass as part of the rewards track or as rewards for special missions in the game.

This article will be updated with more info on how to get Unstable Molecules once it’s revealed closer to season three, but for now, be prepared to shell out some real-world currency to swap the colors on these skins.
