In the closing moments of Loki's season 2 finale, the God of Mischief destroyed the Time Loom and created a new Multiverse which he now sits at the centre of.
Seemingly destined to remain there for eternity, Loki has used the powers He Who Remains gave him to create a Yggdrasil-like Multiverse which can be truly infinite (giving those on the Sacred Timeline the free will that Kang Variant took from them when he formed the Sacred Timeline).
Today, Marvel Studios has released two new posters which officially welcome God Loki to the MCU's Multiverse Saga. He's always been a God, of course, but an argument could be made that he's now the God. After all, the Asgardian is responsible for keeping every existence in creation alive, though the incursions taking place - and the Kang Variants who will soon wage war - may free him when it's inevitably destroyed.
Recently, Tom Hiddleston suggested his time as the character ended with Loki's season 2 finale.
"It all comes full circle," the British actor, who first played Loki in 2011's Thor, told Jimmy Fallon. He'd add, "It's the conclusion to season 2, it's also the conclusion to seasons 1 and 2. It's also the conclusion to six films and 12 episodes and 14 years of my life. 14 years. I was 29 when I was cast, I'm 42 now. It's been a journey."
We're sure he'll be back eventually, particularly as the character is sure to be a key part of the next Avengers movies. His knowledge of the Multiverse and link to the TVA should be crucial to where this Saga is heading and, if nothing else, it may be Loki who is responsible for creating the rebooted MCU which will reportedly recast fan-favourites and welcome the X-Men into the fold. We'll have to wait and see.
In the meantime, check out these new posters for Loki season 2 below.
