You might dismiss Marvel Rivals as an Overwatch clone, creator NetEase deserves credit for discovering creative ways to appeal to its unabashedly thirsty fanbase. Enter Lady Loki, a completely new outfit for the existing Strategist hero Loki, providing players a faithful to the comics version of the Asgardian deity.
Not Hela, But Loki
Despite earlier fan speculation, the highly anticipated Lady Loki costume is definitely not a skin for Hela. Instead, it is a complete visual overhaul of Loki the character, featuring new voice lines. Based on the reveal trailer, Lady Loki keeps all of Loki's signature powers: his projectile attack, his trickery skill, and his clone ability. The sole difference is her striking new look, designed to captivate an segment of fans eager to spend their Lattice.
A Look and Sound in Action
Below is a look at Lady Loki on the battlefield, accompanied by 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 energy to the familiar playstyle.
A Gateway to Future Skins
With NetEase has broken the seal with this gender-bent skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is busy considering similar swaps. Popular ideas currently range from:
- Gwenpool as the forthcoming Deadpool.
- Jane Foster as the God of Thunder.
- Gwen Stacy as Spider-Woman.
One pressing query is: Will NetEase have the guts to deliver more obscure variants, such as one-time Ms. Marvel Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That likely depend on fan demand!
When to Get the Skin
The Lady Loki skin will be available in Marvel Rivals from January 1, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST until January 29, 2026, at 6 p.m. PST.
