‘Disney Infinity 2.0’ Adds Loki And Falcon To The Toybox

It seems that every day “Disney Infinity 2.0” keeps getting bigger. Thanks to the almost infinite amount of characters in the Marvel and Disney catalogue, it feels like any new character is almost a cause for celebration. After adding the Guardians of the Galaxy, along with Hiro and Baymax from “Big Hero 6,” “Disney Infinity 2.0” may have released their final two characters: Loki and Falcon.

Announced by Polygon, Loki and Falcon, like many of the characters in “Disney Infinity 2.0,” will have their own distinct in-game abilities, along with their own figurines. Loki will be able to use the magic of his Sceptor, which fans of the “Avengers” movie will recognize. Falcon can fly of course, but will also specialize in both aerial and ground combat.

An interview with Comic Book Resources has also confirmed that both characters will have their costumes from the Disney XD show “Avengers Assemble.” Their Disney XD voice actors will also voice the two characters, with Bumper Robinson as Falcon and renowned voice actor Troy Baker as Loki.

These two characters have made their presence very well-known in the Marvel movies. Loki was played by Tom Hiddleston and was the villain in “Thor,” “The Avengers” and “Thor: The Dark World.” Falcon on the other hand has only appeared in “Captain America: Winter Soldier,” but is rumoured for an “Age of Ultron” cameo.

Both characters have also been very prominent in the comic book world as of late, as they both now have their own ongoing Marvel comic titles. Falcon, real name Sam Wilson, has recently taken the Captain America mantle from Steve Rogers and is the star of “All New Captain America,” written by Rick Remender and drawn by Stuart Immonen. Loki is now an agent of Asgard and is currently one of Marvel’s well-known bisexual characters in “Loki: Agent of Asgard” written by AL Ewing and drawn by Lee Garbett.

While these two might be the last Marvel characters released for “Disney Infinity 2.0,” until the inevitable “Disney Infinity 3.0,” executive producer of the game John Vignocchi stated that as long as Marvel makes exciting content, they might bring it to “Disney Infinity.” After all, with phase 3 of the Marvel films announced and the lack of Ant-Man and Ultron figurines, it’s clear that the Marvel universe is a toybox fans will continue to play with for a long time.
