Marvel Rivals Lady Loki Skin Releases January 2

NetEase Games has confirmed the release of a new Lady Loki skin for the popular hero shooter Marvel Rivals, transforming the character Loki into a genderbent version with a full visual and audio overhaul. The cosmetic, which includes a feminine outfit, altered body model, longer hair, and completely rerecorded voice lines, will become available in the in-game store on January 2, 2025, and remain on offer until January 29, 2025.

The announcement follows weeks of fan speculation sparked by a teaser on the game's roadmap, which hinted at a "Lokilooking" addition. Initial concerns among players suggested the skin might apply to Hela, Loki's half-sister, rather than the titular god of mischief himself. Those fears were dispelled in the reveal trailer, which showcased Lady Loki retaining all of Loki's core abilities, including Mystical Missile, Deception, and Doppelgänger, while introducing a new voice performed by actor Abby Trott, who also voices Magik in the game. Team-up dialogues and battle chatter have been updated to match the character's new persona, though it remains unclear if pre-match conversations have been similarly adjusted.
