The Hero Shooter Marvel Rivals Unabashedly Unveils the New Lady Loki Skin
While some may label Marvel Rivals as an Overwatch clone, developer NetEase earns praise for discovering creative ways to engage its eager and dedicated fanbase. Introducing 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
Contrary to some predictions and fears, the previously teased Lady Loki costume is not a skin for Hela. Instead, it is a full-on reskin of Loki himself, featuring fresh voiceover work. Based on the official preview, Lady Loki retains all of Loki's core powers: Mystical Missile, his trickery skill, and Doppelgänger. The only change is her striking new look, tailored to appeal to an segment of fans eager to spend their Lattice.
Hearing and Seeing Lady Loki

Her lines and onscreen presence bring a new energy to the familiar playstyle.
Opening the Door to Possibilities
With NetEase has opened the door with this gender-swapped skin for Loki, the Marvel Rivals community is busy considering similar swaps. Popular ideas now range from:
- The character Gwenpool as the forthcoming Deadpool.
- Jane Foster as the God of Thunder.
- Spider-Gwen as Spider-Woman.
The big question is: Does NetEase have the courage to deliver less mainstream alternate versions, such as one-time Ms. Marvel Sharon Ventura as She-Thing? That likely hinge on fan demand!
Availability Details
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.
