X-Men ’97 Season 2 Episode Release Dates on Disney+ (July 1, 2026)
X-Men ’97 Season 2 is finally underway on Disney+, with the first batch of episodes landing on July 1, 2026—nearly two years after the Season 1 finale. The show’s return follows years of development, even though Season 2 was already confirmed long before Season 1 reached viewers.
Checklists
The second season of X-Men ’97 had been confirmed in development well ahead of Season 1, but getting it to Disney+ still took years. The first three episodes premiered on Disney+ on July 1, 2026, arriving close to two years after the Season 1 finale.
Season 2 will roll out new episodes on a weekly schedule after the premiere, for a total of nine episodes. A third season and a fourth season have already been placed into development.

IGN’s Season 2 Review
Preview access allowed reviewers to check out the first four episodes of Season 2, which were graded with a 9 out of 10. Here’s a condensed look at the takeaway from the opening stretch of the new season:
“The wait may have been painful, but X-Men ’97 has no trouble justifying its prolonged absence. Season 2 is off to a terrific start in its first four episodes. The series deftly continues from Season 1’s dramatic cliffhanger, building compelling new storylines spread across three distinct points in time. Not every character is given full room to shine yet, but that’s to be expected in such a jam-packed superhero ensemble. The series continues to be both a love letter to a particular era of the X-Men franchise and a source of deep, enjoyable character drama that can appeal to Marvel fans of all stripes.” – Jesse Schedeen
