Everyone is still going wild over Jane Foster’s appearance in the new Thor: Love and Thunder teaser, and she’s popping up elsewhere too.
On Tuesday, Crystal Dynamics announced that Jane Foster, AKA The Mighty Thor, will be the next playable character in Marvel’s Avengers. Jane won’t make an appearance until Update 2.5, but Crystal Dynamics did hint at her ability set in Tuesday’s development update.
“Our hero designs are driven first and foremost by their core comic book identities,” Crystal Dynamics’ statement reads. “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.”
It’ll likely be a while until Jane Foster debuts in Marvel’s Avengers, as Update 2.5 doesn’t have a release date yet. Heck, neither does Update 2.4, though Crystal Dynamics is targeting May for that patch.
Now that patch 2.3 is behind us, we’d like to update you on what’s coming up in the near future for the game. This includes some great improvements to the event system as well as our next playable hero Jane Foster: The Mighty Thor!

It’s been a long, difficult road for Marvel’s Avengers. Even with additions like Spider-Man, the game didn’t pick up any steam and was still seen as a disappointment by publisher Square Enix.
Crystal Dynamics is also busy working on another Tomb Raider, which will utilize the jaw-droppingly technical powerhouse that is Unreal Engine 5.
