Loki team teases the God of Mischief's "awkward teenager" romance with Sylvie in season 2
06.10.2023 - 14:47 / gamesradar.com / Sophia Di-Martino / Kate Herron
Warning! This article contains mild spoilers for Loki season 2 episode 1. If you've yet to watch the episode, turn back now.
Loki season 2 picks up right where its predecessor left off; with Sophia Di Martino's Sylvie killing He Who Remains and destroying the Sacred Timeline. As a result, the TVA's Temporal Loom – a device that refines raw time into a physical timeline, bear with us – starts malfunctioning, overwhelmed by the sudden surge of branches, which sets Loki and the gang on a mission to fix it before it breaks and well, wipes everything out of existence.
With that, there's not much... time, in its first few episodes anyway, to explore Loki and Sylvie's complicated relationship, which culminated in a fight and a kiss at the end of season 1. But that doesn't mean the team behind the Marvel show have forgotten about the God of Mischief's variant crush...
"I don't think it was a, 'Oh, we're moving away from the romance' decision, I think the stakes are just so high," executive producer Kevin Wright tells GamesRadar+. "There's so much drama happening that it always felt like convoluted to slow things down just for the romance, so we would try to find those moments where we could."
Aside from a brief re-introduction at the end of the episode, and a post-credits scene revealing where she's been based since that fateful day at the End of Time, Sylvie isn't in 'Ouroboros' all that much. Though she's mentioned a lot by Loki (Tom Hiddleston), who insists to Mobius (Owen Wilson) and Hunter B-15 (Wunmi Mosaku) that they catch up to her before the Time Variance Authority does. (We already know from promotional material that the pair eventually reunite inside a McDonald's, as you do).
"Actors as amazing as Sophia and Tom can play it all without saying anything, you know?" episode 2 director Dan Deleeuw adds. "Loki keeps saying, 'We need to find Sylvie, we need to find Sylvie. We need to find out what's going on'. What he's not saying is, 'I want to find Sylvie because I wanted to pursue what happened at the end of the last season," he laughs. "He's coming in ready to go.
"What muddies that, though, is that Sylvie has been [in 1982 Broxton, Oklahoma] for eight months to a year, right? For her, it's been a while but for Loki, it's been a couple of days. So she's had all this time to move on and be happy and he hasn't moved on at all. You can see in their faces; she's looking at this as an older relationship and he sees it as a younger relationship, and Sylvie's trying to like figure out how it's going to affect her life."
It's interesting that Deleeuw alludes to the pair growing apart. Likening Loki and Sylvie – dubbed Sylki by fans – to "awkward teenagers", a phrase season 1 director Kate Herron often

Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope Creative Director Teases Whether A Third Game Will Happen
Sometimes, it’s a no-brainer that a video game should get a follow-up, spinoff, or direct sequel. Whether it’s because the gameplay is incredible, the story has room to be expanded, or the game overall is just a fun time, it’s usually easy to see whether a game is doing well enough for a sequel to be made. For Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope, that success is harder to gauge. Part of it is because Ubisoft has been not-so-subtle jerks about the game since its release in October of 2022. The game had universal praise from fans and critics and seemed to be on its way to glory on every level.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Director Talks About How The Team Worked Together To Get Things Done
When it comes to games coming out in 2024, it will be hard to top the hype for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. It took quite a while for the original remake title to be released on PS4, but once it did, it was rather legendary. Square Enix put everything they could into this remake saga so that it would stand out visually, have advanced gameplay mechanics, and still feel like the original, but be expanded in ways they couldn’t do before. The result was one of the system’s best titles, and now, the sequel has the same hype attached to it.
