It would not be an exaggeration to call Loki one of the best shows of 2021, let alone the MCU TV shows. The first season of the Superhero TV series blended fantasy, mythology, space, and time.

The only complaint Marvel fans have from Loki was the length of the TV show, which ended in six episodes. However, there have been some rumors about the development of the follow-up season of Loki.

This article will share all available details about what happened in Season 1 and when the second season will arrive.

It is clear from the reception of Loki Season 1 that everyone wants a second season of the Disney+ series. However, there haven't been any official announcements from the marvel bosses regarding the renewal.

Although the previous MCU series "WandaVision" and "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" are most likely not to receive a follow-up, the chances of Loki Season 2 look pretty high with universal critical and commercial success.

If rumors around the second season of the Disney+ show are to be believed, Marvel can start developing Loki Season 2 by January 2022. So, if everything goes perfectly, fans can see the return of God of Mischief by the end of 2022.

The original Loki escapes with Classic, Kid, Alligator variants to fight with Alioth himself. On their way to fight Alioth, the group came across Mobius and Sylvie, who decides on a better plan of enchanting the Guardian of the Void.

Sylvie and Loki move ahead with their plan while Mobius returns to TVA using the Tempad. The duo try to enchant the Alioth, but the latter proves to be more powerful than expected.

So, Classic Loki creates a distraction and sacrifices himself while serving his glorious purpose. The distraction enables the Loki duo to successfully enchant the Alioth and open a gateway through the Void.
