Update:And, just like (William) clockwork, it turns out I was right.Invincibleseason 2 part 2’s release date was announced today (January 22), which is one of two days I speculated on in this article.
So, when will the R-rated Prime Video show return to our screens? As the belowYouTubevideo reveals, it’ll debut onThursday, March 14. Mark your mobile phone calendars accordingly, folks.
Original story follows.
It’s almost time to breathe a sign of relief,Invinciblefans, because a season 2 part 2 release date announcement is almost upon us.
Nearly two months afterInvincibleseason 2’s mid-season finale, the next installment in the wildly successfulPrime Videoseries is due a launch update – and thankfully, we won’t have to wait much longer for an official reveal, becauseAmazonhas announced that… it’s going to make a release date announcement soon.
A post to the show’s X/Twitter account last Friday (January 19) revealed thatInvincibleseason 2 part 2’s launch date would be confirmed “next week”. That means we can expect a formal announcement sometime this week, i.e. between Monday, January 22 and Sunday, January 28.

Curiously, the post was uploaded byInvincible’s social media team at 3:29pm PT on January 19 – 90 minutes before most US east coast workers finished working for the week. Even more strangely, it hit the X feeds of UK dwellers at 11:29pm, who would have been asleep, or out partying on a Friday night, and 9:29am on January 20 in Australia, when most Aussies were likely enjoying a lie-in. In short: it was an unusual time to post an announcement when nobody was watching their X feed.

Ahead of this week’s forthcoming reveal, we only knew thatInvincible’s sophomore season would return in early 2024. Speaking to TechRadar in October 2023, co-showrunner Simon Racioppa surprisingly confirmed it"wasn’t the original plan" to split season 2 in half, but production issues meant it was the “best way to present season 2” to the franchise’s devote fanbase.
Admittedly, two months isn’t a long time to wait betweenInvincibleseason 2’s mid-season break and the season 2 part 2 release reveal. But, if you’re in need of a refresher heading into the next batch of episodes, read ourspoiler-free thoughts onInvincibleseason 2 part 1, or check out ourInvincibleseason 2 episode 4 ending explainedarticle. They’ll remind you of what went down in this season’s first four episodes, and what the mid-season finale sets up ahead of part 2’s arrival.
When will the Invincible season 2 episode 5 release date be announced?
Okay, so when will Amazon unveil the official launch date forInvincibleseason 2 part 2?
For me, there are two clear frontrunners. The first of those is today (January 22), which marks the 21st anniversary ofInvincible’s first comic book issue. Indeed, the beloved superhero series flew onto store shelves on January 22, 2003, so it would be fitting if season 2 part 2’s release date is confirmed then. However, Amazon already usedInvincible’s 20th birthday to release the first season 2 teaserlast January, so it would raise eyebrows if it utilized the same date twice in 12 months, regardless of its significance.
The other plausible date to unveil one of thebest Prime Video shows' return would be Wednesday, January 24. That date marks two months since season 2 episode 4 debuted on one of the world’sbest streaming services– that being November 24, 2023. Sure, it isn’t as apt a date asInvincible’s actual birthday but, if January 22 is a bit too early in the week to make such an announcement, a mid-week one with some season 2 symbolism wouldn’t be the worst idea.

As for when the R-rated animated show will punch its way back onto Amazon’s primary streamer, I think it’ll return in March.
Currently, there are no Amazon TV Originals confirmed to debut on Prime Video that month – indeed, a cursory glance at the streamer’s 2024 TV lineup confirms as much. A February 2024 release is highly unlikely, given the second month of the year is only nine days away, while an April 2024 launch won’t happen, what withAmazon’sFalloutTV show arriving on April 12. It would be remiss of Amazon to release two big TV hitters in the same month, so a March launch forInvincibleseason 2 part 2 is looking increasingly plausible. We’ll find out if I’m correct in my assumptions soon enough.
