The new year is fast approaching — which means it’s almost time to head back to Exandria, bees!
On Sunday, November 15, during TwitchCon and a special actual play one shot titled The Rings of Power: A Middle-Earth One-Shot featuring Critical Role cast members Sam Riegel, Travis Willingham and Liam O’Brien, as well as Rings of Power cast members Maxim Baldry and Benjamin Walker, O’Brien — the one shot’s game master — announced that Season 2 of the Emmy Award winning adult animated series The Mighty Nein will officially return for its second season on March 24, 2027, with eight new episodes. All episodes will drop at once.
At the end of Season 1, audiences finally saw the team of misfit antiheroes — tiefling Jester Lavorre (Laura Bailey), half-orc warlock Fjord Stone (Willingham), goblin Nott The Brave (Riegel), wizard Caleb (O’Brien), Cobalt Soul monk Beauregard Lionett (Marisha Ray), and tiefling bloodhunter Mollymauk Tealeaf (Taliesin Jaffe) — meet up with barbarian/mercenary Yasha Nydoorin (Ashley Johnson), bringing the group fully together for the first time.
What new stories lie ahead in Season 2? A pirate adventure, for one, which takes the group across the high seas where they continue to grapple with their pasts and relationships. Of course, the Beacon remains its own threat, and longtime Critters familiar with the original Mighty Nein tabletop campaign can expect some new faces and fan-favorite characters to make appearances.
