For those of you who are familiar with Star Wars: The Clone Wars, probably a fair idea about Star Wars: The Bad Batch. The first season of Bad Batch premiered in May 2021 and was available to stream on Disney+. Soon after, Bad Batch Season 2 was announced as is due to release sometime soon. The reason the familiarity with The Clone Wars is helpful is that Bad Batch is a sequel as well as a spin-off series of The Clone Wars. Star Wars: Bad Batch is an animated series that follows the experimental clones of the Bad Batch, which have previously been introduced in The Clone Wars.
The first season of Bad Batch consisted of a grand total of sixteen episodes, and there’s no doubt that the fans want more of this series. Star Wars has a huge and loyal fan following, one that is constantly hoping for more content from the creators, and the creators tend to deliver every single time. Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2 was announced on the 5th of August, 2021, and despite the delays and the release date being pushed, the series is almost here, and we’re just as excited as you are. So, here’s everything you need to know about Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2:

What Will Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2 Be About?
The Bad Batch consists of Hunter, Wrecker, Echo, and Tech, who have been under a lot of pressure and struggling to find a place for themselves in the new Empire, which isn’t ideal for these soldiers. One of the main themes of Bad Batch Season 2 will be the search for purpose. There will be plenty of new changes in Season 2 which will include Omega and the Bad Batch, and then training her to be a part of the team. There have also been hints which nudge at Echo taking up a leadership role this season.
Bad Batch Season 2 will surely be different from the first season, which focussed on them trying to find their place, and this time, they’re going to try and find their purpose. Nevertheless, we might be introduced to some new faces this season too, and Star Wars fans might just be familiar with them.
The Cast of Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2
The voice actors for the animated Star Wars series deserve an honorable mention, every single time. One of the people who definitely deserves to be known is Dee Bradley Baker, who not only voices one character, but more than four. Dee Bradley Baker is returning for Bad Batch Season 2 and will be voicing Echo, Wrecker, Tech, Hunter, Crosshair, and other clones. Technically, all the clones. Dee Bradley Baker is truly one of a kind and has made this show what it is. Voice actors truly aren’t appreciated as much as they should be!
Other than Dee Bradley Baker, Michelle Ang will also be returning for Bad Batch Season 2 as Omega. Again, as it is possible that new characters might appear in this season, so will new voice actors. However, you never know, maybe Dee Bradley Cooper will voice them too! You can learn a couple of tricks from the master himself, right here.
When and Where Can You Watch Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2?
While fans don’t have to wait for too long, they will have to wait for 2022 to end before they can watch Star Wars: Bad Batch Season 2. Although the show was originally set to release in September 2022, due to delays, it was pushed to 2023. While this might be bad news for some, we are more than thrilled that Bad Batch Season 2 will release on the 4th of January, so the wait truly won’t be too long.
Much like all other Star Wars related content, Bad Batch Season 2 will also be available to watch on Disney+. There will be a 2 episode premiere on the 4th of January, and after that, there will be weekly episodes.
