Shadow and Bone Season 2 will arrive on Netflix anytime to continue the leftover story of what happens after Alina and Mal escape The Darkling. But the release date has yet not been announced. Filming for Season 2 was wrapped up back in June 2022. This means now the series is under post-production.

The original fantasy series, based on two of Leigh Bardugo’s popular Grishaverse book series — Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows gives mostly positive reviews from viewers and critics alike after dropping on Netflix. The show was watched by more than 55 million households in its first 28 days.

The story is set in a war-torn world plagued by the Shadow Fold, a swath of permanent darkness separating East from West Ravka, inhabited by carnivorous winged creatures known as Volcra. Shadow and Bone Season 2 ends with

Nina announces that he is a slave trader so that he can get arrested instead of being captured by Feydor. The real purpose of Nina was to save Matthias' life from Fedyor. However, Matthias somehow thought Nina betrayed him. As the ship crossing the Fold starts its journey, orphan mapmaker Alina uses her powers to shield it with a tunnel of light, protecting the passengers from the Volcra.

Upon the ship reaching the other side, Kirigan expands the Fold towards West Ravka, overwhelming it and destroying a growing rebellion there. In the lower decks, Kaz and the others find Mal has snuck on board and they make a plan, but Mal goes against Kirigan and is held at gunpoint, prompting the Crows to advance.

Seeing what Kirigan had done to West Ravka, Zoya turns against Kirigan and starts steering the ship across the Fold. Alina moves out of Kirigan's control by cutting the antler from his hand and, with help from the Crows, defeats Kirigan's forces. Mal fights Kirigan but Kirigan is suddenly dragged away by Volcra. Zoya, Alina, and Mal, along with the Crows, leave the Fold, being the only survivors, and decide to go their separate ways. Kaz's gang meets Nina at the skiff headed back to Ketterdam. Alina goes with Mal on the skiff, as well, to continue learning how to use her powers.

Alina discovers she is a Grisha, a magic user with the legendary power to create light, which could be the key to setting her country free from the Fold. As the Six of Crows storyline progresses, we'll learn more about Kaz and his crew's experiences. The Darkling is alive, stronger than ever, and hell-bent on revenge.
