Marvel Studios: Legends
S01E07 Loki (on Disney+ HERE)
S01E08 The Tesseract (on Disney+ HERE)
These installments review the relevant material from The Infinity Saga in preparation for the Loki series, even if you just finished watching the previous saga, it had a lot of moving parts and this review is a handy reminder of the important elements leading into this new era.
Loki (June 9, 2021 – November 9, 2023)
This 2 season, 12 episode series spins directly out of Avengers: Endgame and introduces the multiverse. The two 6 episode seasons we have to date tell a complete story. The Multiverse was previously referenced, most notably in Eyes of Wakanda, Doctor Strange and Avengers: Endgame – but this series explains why there hasn’t truly been a multiverse up to this point and why those adventures weren’t an issue. After this point, the multiverse becomes massive, essentially making ALL previous Marvel stories from various studios canon – with the different continuities taking place in similar but different realities. The series also explains variants, which are different versions of the same characters, originating from different universes; sometimes variants look exactly the same but other versions may look very different.

*Episodes 1×04 (“The Nexus Event”) & 2×01 (“Ouroboros”) contain credit scenes.
This series ties directly into “Avengers: Endgame Encore”, “Deadpool & Wolverine”, “Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania”, “What If…?” / “Marvel Zombies” & “Avengers: Doomsday”.
After this point, thanks to the introduction of the multiverse and its sprawling ability to encompass previously uncounted narratives, everything that Marvel has ever made is now basically part of the larger tapestry that Marvel has created, extending far beyond the relatively limited confines of The Infinity Saga. Still, some installments are more heavily tied into the central ongoing storylines than others. Below are the pieces that make up the multiverse from the earliest adventures up back up to the events of Endgame & Loki, with links to the various realities in which they take place.
Infinity Saga projects are included to demonstrate how and when these multiversal stories weave into what has already been viewed – or how to watch them again if you so choose.
Note that when you arrive back at Avengers: Endgame, the film will have changed to the Avengers: Endgame Encore version, which has a different ending + 3 credit scenes that were not featured in the original cut of the film.
Entries that are highlighted in Luminous Vivid Amber are either Earth 616 / Earth-199999 / Infinity Saga Universe / stories – or eventually directly impact stories in that universe.
