The Hero Shooter Marvel Rivals Boldly Introduces its Fresh Lady Loki Skin
While some may label Marvel Rivals as an Overwatch clone, developer NetEase earns credit for finding creative ways to appeal to its eager and dedicated audience. Enter Lady Loki, a completely new costume for the current Strategist hero Loki, providing players a faithful to the comics version of the Norse trickster god(dess).
A Reskin of Loki, Not Hela
Despite some predictions and fears, the highly anticipated Lady Loki costume is not a skin for Hela. Rather, it is a complete visual overhaul of Loki himself, complete with fresh voiceover work. Judging by the official preview, Lady Loki keeps the full suite of Loki's core powers: his projectile attack, Deception, and Doppelgänger. The sole difference is her new appearance, designed to captivate an audience more than ready to spend their Lattice.
A Look and Sound in Action
Below is a look at Lady Loki on the battlefield, along with a sample of her new voiceover, courtesy of voice actor Abby Trott. It's worth noting Trott is also the voice behind Magik in Marvel Rivals.
The character's lines and onscreen presence bring a new dynamic to the well-known kit.
Opening the Door to Possibilities
With NetEase has broken the seal with this gender-bent skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is busy speculating about future possibilities. Popular ideas now include:
- The character Gwenpool as the upcoming Deadpool.
- Jane Foster as Thor.
- Gwen Stacy as Spider-Woman.
One pressing query remains: Does NetEase have the courage to deliver more obscure alternate versions, such as one-time Ms. Marvel Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That will probably depend on fan demand!
When to Get the Skin
The Lady Loki skin will be obtainable in Marvel Rivals from January 1, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST until January 29, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST.
