Speaking of Asgard, NetEase has just unveiled Loki as the first playable character in Marvel Rivals. Although his inclusion in the game was widely anticipated, Loki is the first character to receive his own showcase. Here's everything the trailer revealed about our favorite Asgardian anti-hero!

Marvel Rivals: Loki Abilities 

As the master of illusions and mischief, Loki's character in Marvel Rivals will possess abilities that align with his powers. Loki's abilities were initially hinted at in the official Marvel Rivals trailer, but now we have the opportunity to see them up close.

The Ruler of Asgard is designated as a Support champion in the game and boasts an impressive array of abilities, including creating decoys, shifting into other characters (his ultimate), and even achieving invisibility. Loki will undoubtedly serve as the focal point for some exciting strategic gameplay that could turn the tide for a team.
