The Blood Kariudo skin for Psylocke is one of the latest additions to *Marvel Rivals* for Season 1, Eternal Night Falls. As the release date approaches, fans are eager to unlock this commanding ensemble for Sai. Fortunately, there are multiple ways to gather the Units needed to secure this striking skin.
How To Get the Blood Kariudo Skin for Psylocke
Image via NetEase Games Marvel Rivals players will be able to customize their Psylocke with the new Blood Kariudo skin when it launches in the in-game store on Thursday, January 30th, 2025, at 6:00 PM EST / Friday, January 31st at 2:00 PM UTC. Just like the Blood Soldier skin for Bucky the Winter Soldier, Psylocke’s Blood Kariudo cosmetic will be available for immediate purchase, adding a unique flair to the character’s collection of looks.
Fitting what NetEase said on their X (formerly Twitter) post announcing the skins, both heroes look ready to “Step into the shadows, embrace the power of the night, and let your rivals tremble at your might.” This is especially fitting for Psylocke, who will sport an all-red warrior-commander-style outfit that seems inspired by elements from Street Fighter and Devil May Cry.

How Much Will Psylocke’s New Blood Kariudo Skin Cost in Marvel Rivals?
Upon its launch in Marvel Rivals, the new Blood Kariudo skin for Psylocke is expected to cost 1600 Units, according to sources like Marvel Rivals – Leaks & Info on X. While leaks should be taken with a grain of salt until official confirmation, this price aligns with patterns observed in NetEase Games’ previous releases.
Interestingly, the bundle for Blood Kariudo is rumored to initially be priced at 2200 Units but will be discounted to 1600 Units at launch, creating the allure of a bargain. This strategy mirrors what was done with other costumes like the Cheerful Dragoness costume for Squirrel Girl.
The mention of a bundle suggests that additional Psylocke cosmetics will be available for Sai, though details on these extras won’t be revealed until the release date.
