The X-Men Are Back and Better Than Ever
X-Men ’97 Season 2 is one week away, and Marvel has just dropped a new trailer and the full episode title and release schedule ahead of its July 1 premiere on Disney+. The season kicks off with a three-episode premiere, and the episode titles alone are enough to send fans into a frenzy. Season 2 currently holds a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes ahead of its debut. As Marvel’s official site confirmed, the season features nine episodes with a voice cast including Ross Marquand, Cal Dodd, and Jennifer Hale.
Full Episode Schedule and Titles
The full Season 2 episode lineup has been revealed, and it is packed with iconic X-Men lore from the start. Here is the complete schedule:
- Episode 1: Days of Past Future: July 1
- Episode 2: A Force to Be Reckoned With: July 1

- Episode 9: Survival of the Fittest: August 12
The three-episode premiere on July 1 is a gift to fans who have been waiting since Season 1’s stunning finale. The title “Days of Past Future” is a clear nod to the classic X-Men comics arc, and “Rise of Apocalypse” across two episodes signals that En Sabah Nur is going to be a significant presence this season.
100% on Rotten Tomatoes
Season 2 is already sitting at a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes ahead of its premiere, matching the critical reception that made Season 1 one of the most talked-about animated series in recent memory. We reported earlier that Season 2 had debuted at 100% on RT, and the score is holding strong as the premiere approaches.
The new trailer gives a deeper look at what Season 2 has in store, with gorgeous animation, high-stakes action, and what appears to be an emotionally heavy storyline that builds on everything Season 1 established. X-Men ’97 has become one of the crown jewels of Marvel Animation, and Season 2 looks like it is ready to take things even further.
