‘The Bad Batch’ Season 2 Releases New Trailer and Poster One Month Ahead of Release, Episode Titles Revealed

As we enter the final 30-day stretch before the release of The Bad Batch season 2, Lucasfilm has released a brand-new look at the new set of episodes. Hunter, Omega, and the rest of the gang will be reunited soon, showing off their new looks and embarking on new galactic adventures in an attempt to distort the newly installed Galactic Empire and bring their former ally Crosshair into their team. The new season will also feature the return of Emperor Palpatine and also Gungi, one of the young Padawans that appeared in The Clone Wars season 5.

 

Check out the trailer here:

 

 

Lucasfilm also dropped a new poster for the season which you can see below:

There are minor spoilers ahead, so look away now if you want to go in completely fresh.

 

The trailer shows off a number of tantalizing moments: more glimpses of Gungi as the Bad Batch defend from a group of droids referred to as “Axis” in the subtitles; Commander Cody has a conversation with Crosshair; a shot of a huge robotic creature that looks strikingly similar to the Tallnecks from the Horizon video games; and we also get an extended look at the team completing a mission on a tropical island, running away from huge crab-looking creatures.

 

Lucasfilm provided more details about the new season through a press release:

 

When the new season opens, months have passed since the events on Kamino, and the Bad Batch continue their journey navigating the Empire after the fall of the Republic. They will cross paths with friends and foes, both new and familiar, as they take on a variety of thrilling mercenary missions that will take them to unexpected and dangerous new places.

Two more animated series besides The Bad Batch season 2 are coming to Disney Plus in the first half of 2023: Star Wars: Visions Vol. 2 is targeting a release sometime during the spring, as is the new series Star Wars: The Young Jedi Adventures, which will be the first piece of content set in the High Republic era on Disney Plus.

Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as movies from Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
