Marvel Rivals Psylocke Kit and Gameplay

September 24, 2024

The Marvel Rivals developer team shared a short video showing off a little Psylocke gameplay:

Based on what we can see, we can guesstimate most of Psylocke's abilities:

• Left click: Swing with her odachi
• Right click: Ranged crossbow attack
• Shift: Quick dash
• E: Instantly blink to target location and become invisible to enemies for a short duration
• Ultimate: Channel Sai's psychic strength into her odachi, increasing her damage and auto-snapping to enemies for a short time

Overwatch players will notice a number of similarities between Psylocke and Genji; her ult seems similar but sacrificing raw damage for a longer duration and what seems to be an automatic lock-on to nearby enemies.

Also, hold on to your ankhs — Moon Knight was definitely teased at the end of the video there. Psylocke is voiced by Alpha Takahashi.
