In the fast-evolving world of Marvel Rivals, character details matter—and one specific detail about Peni Parker has just been officially confirmed.

According to lead developer insights and statements from Luna Snow’s creator, Peni Parker is 18 years old in the Marvel Rivals game. That’s right—players now have clear, canonical confirmation that the SP//dr pilot is of legal age within the game’s universe.

This update brings her in line with a more mature, combat-ready version of her character, and clears up any confusion sparked by her younger comic origins, where she first appeared as 14 years old in Edge of Spider-Verse #5.

Who is Danny Koo (aka Zingodude)?

Zingodude, also known as Danny Koo, is a prominent figure in the Marvel gaming and character development space. He is best known for creating the Marvel superhero Luna Snow, a K-pop-inspired ice-wielding character who debuted in the mobile game Marvel Future Fight. He is currently working for Marvel Rivals and the one who confirmed Peni Parker’s age in the game.

What This Means for Players and Fans

Let’s be real—this confirmation is more than just a lore update. For fans who’ve been drawn to Peni’s unique mech-piloting style, high-tech visuals, or vibrant personality, it provides clarity and peace of mind.

Yes, that means the gooners and players who have been simping for Peni Parker can finally breathe easy—she’s of legal age in the game.

Beyond that, her age reflects her story growth. At 18, she represents a character who’s come into her own—balancing the responsibilities of a superhero while stepping into adulthood. That kind of detail adds depth and relatability, especially in a team-based game where character evolution can shape the player experience.

Peni’s Age Across Media

Marvel Rivals seems to follow that lead, ensuring consistency with her evolving narrative across the Spider-Verse.
