Summary

  • A prominent Marvel Rivals leaker reveals an upcoming skin for Loki.
  • Loki's new costume features elaborate design elements, possibly related to Lunar New Year.

A prominent Marvel Rivals leaker revealed fresh gameplay footage of an upcoming skin for Loki, which could be debuting in the popular hero shooter very soon. NetEase Games has been busy expanding Marvel Rivals' offerings, recently announcing that new skins for Moon Knight and Squirrel Girl will be coming to the game on January 3. The developer also stated that it will begin collaborations with several other Marvel games on the same day.

Loki is one of Marvel Rivals' popular Strategists, meaning he provides support and healing to his allies. True to his trickster nature, the hero has a lot of ways to aid teammates while confusing the enemy. For instance, Loki possesses the unique ability to create clones of himself around the battlefield. These copies can mimic his actions to heal or harm nearby characters while also acting as damage sponges. His ultimate ability allows him to temporarily transform into any target and fully utilize their moveset. Despite filling one of the game's most important roles, some players feel the game is a little light on healers. Fortunately, a new leak revealed the villain Ultron could be coming to Marvel Rivals as a Strategist.

In a recent post on Twitter, RivalsInfo revealed gameplay footage of a fresh skin for Loki that could be coming to the game soon. Loki's costume features dark jade and black coloring with large curled horns on his pauldrons and helm. From the back, players can see a tattered gray cape that flows behind the hero as he runs. His usual dark hair appears to be stark white and his signature staff seems to have taken the shape of a scythe. Many fans feel the armored appearance is reminiscent of a dragon, leading some to believe the skin could be associated with the Lunar New Year. RivalsInfo has claimed players could see a new Spider-Man skin in Marvel Rivals associated with the holiday.

RivalsInfo also posted gameplay footage of a new skin for Magneto in Marvel Rivals. The costume appears to take inspiration from military regalia, showing the hero in a fancy gold and black uniform. Some fans believe this skin could be a nod to Magneto's attire in the famous House of M comic book, but it's not an exact recreation.

Leakers have been working hard to uncover clues within the game's files, and recently revealed that new maps and characters could be coming to Marvel Rivals soon. While there are no release dates associated with these leaks, many players are expecting to see a major expansion to the game when Season 1 launches. With Season 0 coming to a close, a lot of the community seems excited to see what comes next for the popular hero shooter.
