As we saw in the trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder this past week, the Mighty Thor is coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and fans will also soon be able to take control of Jane Foster’s Goddess of Thunder in Marvel’s Avengers as Square Enix has announced that the character is being added to the game in an upcoming update.
As reported on the official website, Update 2.5 “will introduce a new playable Hero for all platforms: Jane Foster: The Mighty Thor! Our Hero designs are driven first and foremost by their core comic book identities, so, as a fellow wielder of Mjolnir, her suite of abilities will have a lot in common with the Odinson’s, however she will also have elements that are distinctly Jane.”
At present, it’s unclear when Update 2.5 is scheduled for release, but Update 2.4 is due to arrive in May and so a tie-in with Thor: Love and Thunder’s big screen debut in July would seem the obvious choice.
Marvel’s Avengers is available now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
