You might dismiss Marvel Rivals as an imitation of Overwatch, developer NetEase earns praise for finding creative ways to appeal to its unabashedly thirsty audience. Enter Lady Loki, a completely new costume for the current Strategist hero Loki, providing players a faithful to the comics depiction of the Asgardian trickster god(dess).

Not Hela, But Loki

Despite earlier fan speculation, the highly anticipated Lady Loki costume is definitely not a skin for Hela. Rather, it is a complete visual overhaul of Loki the character, complete with new voice lines. Judging by the reveal trailer, Lady Loki keeps the full suite of Loki's signature powers: Mystical Missile, Deception, and his clone ability. The only change is her new appearance, designed to captivate an segment of fans eager to part with their in-game currency.

Hearing and Seeing Lady Loki

Below is a glimpse at Lady Loki in action, accompanied by a sample of her VO, performed by voice actor Abby Trott. Notably Trott also voices Magik in Marvel Rivals.

Her dialogue and onscreen presence bring a new energy to the familiar kit.

Opening the Door to Possibilities

Now that NetEase has opened the door with this gender-bent skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is already speculating about similar swaps. Popular ideas currently include:

• Gwenpool as the forthcoming Deadpool.
• Thor's alter ego Jane Foster as Thor.
• Gwen Stacy as Spider-Woman.

The big question remains: Does NetEase have the courage to introduce more obscure alternate versions, such as former hero Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That likely hinge on fan demand!

Availability Details

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.
