Exploration Of Blue Lock Season 2 Renewal Status

The production team behind the popular sports anime series, Studio 8bit, has not yet confirmed the next season.

Both are now working in favour of Blue Lock season 2. However, no official announcement has been made as of now.

Season 1 of Blue Lock was revealed in August 2021 and premiered in October 2022 and given that Studio 8bit will aim to maintain both this 12-month production cycle and a 24-episode format, fans can expect Blue Lock season 2 to premiere in April 2024 on the Spring slate.
