Loki is over.

Disney Plus

After five episodes of the latest  Marvel  series on  Disney  Plus, the finale is here. Loki, starring Tom Hiddleston as everyone's favorite god of mischief, premiered on June 9, and a new episode has been keeping us entertained every Wednesday.

That weekly release date was mischievously two days earlier than previously expected, claiming the Wednesday spot instead of Friday, like the other Marvel Disney Plus series. Six episodes make up Loki's first season, with runtimes of 40 to 50 minutes. A second season is already in development.

Find details on how to watch the final episode down below.

What's Loki about?

The series addresses a timey-wimey issue raised in Avengers: Endgame, when an alternate version of Loki steals the Tesseract and creates a new timeline. Loki ends up in the exquisitely designed organization known as the Time Variance Authority, where the Time Keepers, including Owen Wilson's Mobius, enlist his help in sorting out the mess he's left behind.

Rounding out the cast are more members of the Time Variance Authority, including Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ravonna Renslayer and Wunmi Mosaku as Hunter B-15. Sasha Lane, Richard E. Grant, Sophia Di Martino and Erika Coleman also have roles.

How to watch Loki on Disney Plus

To watch the Loki series, you'll need a subscription to Disney Plus. This costs $8 per month, which is cheaper than Netflix, ad-free Hulu and HBO Max. A few features include no ads, mobile downloads, 4K and HDR. You can get up to four streams and premiere access to new movies like Cruella, although this will cost you an extra $30 on top of the subscription fee. Disney Plus is a hub for Star Wars and Marvel, including upcoming new TV series, like Hawkeye and Ms. Marvel. If you're still tossing up whether to subscribe, check out our in-depth review here.

The latest teaser

At this point Marvel has probably given us more trailers than there are episodes. The teasers have until recently been rolling in daily, titled Tick, Chance, Team, Path and Escape. The latest include a midseason sneak peak and a tiny promo titled Change.

What to watch in the meantime

Almost as if this was planned to perfection, Star Wars: The Bad Batch hit Disney Plus on May 4. In other words, another big franchise show has arrived to help bridge the gap between The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Loki. Here's the full release schedule, with new episodes arriving every Friday.
