Vikings: Valhalla second season is now available on Netflix.With brothers Harald and Olaf Sigurdsson now on different sides in the battle for the throne, and Leif and Freydis reunited, the action continues apace. We certainly have some gripping stuff to get our teeth into.Here's everything we know about the new season so far.
Vikings: Valhalla season 2 release date
Netflix released all episodes of Vikings Valhalla on 12 January 2023.
How to watch Vikings: Valhalla season 2
As with the first season, Vikings: Valhalla season 2 is exclusive to Netflix. You can watch the entirety of the season right now (as long as you are a Netflix subscriber).
How many episodes are in Vikings: Valhalla season 2?
Much like Vikings: Valhalla season 1, the second season consists of eight episodes. The titles of each episode are below:
- Episode 1: The Web of Fate
- Episode 2: Towers of Faith
- Episode 3: Pieces of the Gods
- Episode 4: The Thaw
- Episode 5: Birth and Rebirth
- Episode 6: Leap of Faith
- Episode 7: Pecheneg
- Episode 8: The Reckoning
Vikings: Valhalla season 2 plot
The show starts where the last season left off. Forkbeard has invaded Kattegat, putting Olaf's own bid for the throne into doubt. While Freydis and Harald have a choice to set up lives elsewhere or fight for the throne.
We hope it's the latter - would be a boring season if not.
Vikings: Valhalla season 2 cast and crew
Much of season 1's cast returns (apart from those who perished, naturally).
That will include Sam Corlett as Leif Erikson, Frida Gustavsson as Freydís Eiríksdóttir, and Leo Suter as Harald Sigurdsson.
Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson reprises his role as Olaf Haraldsson too, of course, considering he's in the teaser clip shared by Netflix.
How to catch up on Vikings
There's actually a lot to catch up on if you are coming to Vikings: Valhalla afresh. Not only is there the entirety of season 1 on Netfix to watch, there are six seasons of its award-winning predecessor, Vikings, available on Hulu in the US, and Amazon Prime Video in the UK.
From 2024, it will switch over to Netflix in full, but you'll need to catch up with the show on the aforementioned platforms for now.
The original Vikings is set 100 years prior to the events in Valhalla and tells the story of Ragnar Lothbrok and his sons, who are occasionally referenced in the sequel shows.
