Marvel Rivals Players Are Thrilled – With the Arrival of New Black Cat Skins, Her Noticeably Increased Body Proportions Are Being Discussed
The Marvel Rivals community suddenly lit up after the new cosmetic drop for Black Cat (Felicia Hardy). Screenshots and short clips spread fast; a lot of players are pointing out that the character’s proportions look visibly larger in the fresh skins. Some folks are calling these cosmetics the best update the game has seen so far, while others are more skeptical.
The debate stems mainly from side-by-side comparisons of old vs. new images, plus clips showing menu animations and camera angles. Some players insist the model itself looks different; others blame lighting, pose, or the new costumes’ art direction (i.e., not a geometry change). Official patch notes make no mention of a body-model redesign, and the devs haven’t publicly addressed proportional changes—most of their recent posts have been about new skins and balance tweaks rather than remaking character meshes.
A quick refresher: Black Cat arrived as a mobile duelist focused on agility and resource control (e.g., hit-and-run play, manipulating cooldowns). She’s kept a steady fanbase thanks to her look and kinetic kit. For now the community remains split—half thrilled, half dissecting the why—so the conversation will likely keep going until the studio clarifies things or a data miner finds concrete file changes.
