Sony has announced that Jane Foster’s The Mighty Thor will be playable in Marvel’s Avengers as a free update.
The arrival of The Mighty Thor will launch sometime today, bringing the game’s roster to 11 playable heroes (including Spider-Man only on PlayStation).
While Jane will play with all the strength and power of the God of Thunder, she will also bring some of her own unique abilities.
Her intrinsic abilities include All-Mother’s Blessing and God Tempest.
All-Mother’s Blessing builds its overcharge meter with melee attacks. Once full, she unleashes her God Tempest, which increases ranged hammer damage and creates shockwaves with each hit.
The Mighty Thor will also feature several standard attacks, which include the following:
- Hammer toss — for extra reach.
- Quick Fire — a new ranged attack combo that allows the Mighty Thor to make a second more powerful ranged attack by timing her next throw.
- Seek and Pin upgrade — to seek out and pin enemies without needing to aim.
- Her Thunderkick — a brutal front kick to send enemies flying.
In addition to her awesome god-like combat abilities, Jane has a variety of outfits drawing inspiration from the comics and will come with her own mission chain.
Following the addition of The Mighty Thor in patch 2.5, Her story will be told through an electric in-game animatic – The Mighty Thor: Out of Time – illustrated by veteran Marvel artist Takeshi Miyazawa.
Marvel Avengers is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam.
