The Star Wars animated spin-off series titled Star Wars Bad Batch premiered in May 2021. The first season ended with the destruction of the cloning facility and the hiding of the Bad Batch. Meanwhile, fans are wondering if Crosshair, who has left the team, will rejoin his brothers in Star Wars Bad Batch Season 2. So let’s discuss what we know about the second season.
Star Wars Bad Batch, developed by Dave Filoni, is an animated intergalactic action series set in Star Wars Universe. The series follows the adventures of a group of elite military clones called Clone Force 99 as they take on the Empire.
Star Wars Bad Batch Season 2: What Happens Next?
Not only the cloning facility where Omega grew up, but the entire town of Tipoca was destroyed at the end of the first season of the animated series. Meanwhile, Omega, Crosshair, and The Bad Batch were able to make it out alive without much damage. Crosshair, however, was unwilling to join his comrades. At the same time, Nala Se was taken to an Imperial facility, which appears to be the epicenter of the cloning experiments.
When the series returns with Star Wars Bad Batch, we can assume that the show will continue the story after the events of the first season. In the season, we can see Bad Batch arrive in the Ord Mantell, which may be their temporary home for a while. They will have to stay out of sight for some time while also working as mercenaries for Cid. The group will most certainly become involved in the struggle between the Empire and the steadily growing rebels.
Crosshair also seems determined to follow his own path, and he may eventually return to the realm. At the same time, we can also learn more about Nala Se’s plan in the second season of the animated series. She may be essential to the Empire’s plans to produce Force-sensitive clones. The show’s connections to the larger “Star Wars universe” also give us hope for the appearance of fan favorites like Ahsoka Tano or Boba Fett.
Will Crosshair rejoin the team?
When his unit fled Kamino, Crosshair joined the Empire. Then Vice Admiral Rampart ordered him to prepare a group of non-clone warriors to find the Bad Batch. Crosshair admitted that his decision to join the Empire was not motivated by his inhibiting chip when they faced each other in the season finale. Crosshair wants to be with his brothers again, despite claiming that his motivation was to be on the victorious team. He made a valiant effort to persuade them to support him in both. Meanwhile, we may see him return to his team, where he belongs in Star Wars Bad Batch Season 2.
