The Hero Shooter Marvel Rivals Boldly Unveils its Latest Lady Loki Skin
While some may label Marvel Rivals as an Overwatch clone, developer NetEase earns praise for discovering innovative ways to engage its unabashedly thirsty fanbase. Enter Lady Loki, a completely new skin for the current Strategist hero Loki, offering players a faithful to the comics version of the Norse trickster god(dess).
A Reskin of Loki, Not Hela
Contrary to earlier predictions and fears, the previously teased Lady Loki costume is not a skin for Hela. Rather, it is a complete reskin of Loki the character, featuring new voice lines. Based on the reveal trailer, Lady Loki retains all of Loki's signature powers: his projectile attack, Deception, and his clone ability. The sole difference is her new appearance, tailored to captivate an segment of fans more than ready to spend their in-game currency.
A Look and Sound in Action
Below is a look at Lady Loki in action, along with a sample of her new voiceover, performed by voice actor Abby Trott. Notably Trott is also the voice behind Magik in Marvel Rivals.
The character's lines and visual flair add a fresh energy to the familiar playstyle.
Opening the Door to Possibilities
With NetEase has broken the seal with this gender-swapped skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is already speculating about future possibilities. Fan suggestions currently include:
- The character Gwenpool as the forthcoming Deadpool.
- Jane Foster as the God of Thunder.
- Gwen Stacy as Spider-Woman.
The big question remains: Does NetEase have the courage to introduce more obscure alternate versions, such as one-time Ms. Marvel Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That likely hinge 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.
