The majority of the alternate costumes in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 are unlocked through Infinity Trials. These Trials can be played either from the main menu, at Shield Points, or via various rifts hidden around levels. They task players with completing certain objectives with set parameters. Each type of Infinity trial offers three Costumes as rewards, each obtained by earning a certain number of stars.
