Tentative release schedule for Ahsoka Season 2 has been teased by Disney+, as indicated by a listing on the platform. The second season of the show is listed under a 'coming soon in 2026' section on the streamer, which hints that viewers will see the show this year itself.

Fans of the show were curious about the franchise's future, and some worried that the next chapter would be infinitely delayed. This subtle tease settles the doubts once and for all.

The listing marks the first on-platform greenlight for the season, but no official announcement or press release has been issued yet. Earlier Disney+ promotional materials that focused on this year's releases did not include Ahsoka season 2.

That absence was not missed by the fans. The missing title soon generated buzz around the return. Official confirmation about Season 2 arrived back in January 2024, but after that, solid updates have been scarce.

The debut season left viewers at a pivotal point in the Ahsoka storyline, where Ahsoka Tano remains stranded on Peridea. Sabine Wren and Huyang are seen accompanying her and are living Noti people.

Another significant development took place with Ahsoka killing Morgan Elsbeth in the finale, upon which Ezra Bridger successfully returns to the main galaxy. She later reunited with Hera Syndulla some years later.

It is expected that the new Season will pick up the story threads led by Season 1. Baylan Skoll's arc, in which he continues his journey alone, may appear. In Season 1, Baylan stumbles upon massive statues of the Mortis Gods.

This plot point suggests that there may be a deeper Force mythology in Season 2. Another reason why Season 2 will be interesting to viewers is due to its spatial and temporal unfolding: the story will unravel across two galaxies. Cosmic Force lore may also see an extension.

Beginning filming in April 2025, the season is closely tied to Showrunner David Filoni’s wider Star Wars plans. Production work occurred in the United Kingdom. According to reports, filming had ended in September 2025.

This update further indicates that the majority of the work on-camera is complete. The show is now in its post-production phase.

Season 2 will consist of eight episodes. Creative leadership for the next chapter is handled by many industry names. Dave Filoni serves as the showrunner for Season 2. He has written all eight episodes himself and is reportedly becoming the president of Lucasfilm.

Many Star Wars titles are lined up for 2026, and fans are keeping a keen eye on each one's developments. Starting the trail is Star Wars: Maul — Shadow Lord, which will also appear this year.

Another pivotal entry from the franchise is Star Wars: Visions — The Ninth Jedi, which again, will be premiering this year itself. However, even though the rough timeline can be guessed, no official date or release schedule has been provided by the platform.

Now that the second season of the series enters the line, this puts multiple Star Wars projects in scheduling contention within the Disney+ franchise releases. But Season 2 may arrive sooner than we can guess because of its shooting status, which is now complete.

This makes 2026 a strong calendar year for both Disney and the franchise that is coming up with multiple titles. As for fans, excitement rises as they wait for the second chapter of the Disney+ show.

Ahsoka Season 1 is streaming on Disney+.
