Gen V season 2 has arrived, and the first four episodes have been quite a doozy. Now that we're halfway into the new season, we can only imagine what dangers await Marie Moreau and her friends as they navigate sophomore year at Godolkin U.

Don't forget: the events of Gen V season 2 will set up The Boys season 5, bringing the ever-popular Prime Video show to a close (though a prequel spin-off series is on the way). If you aren't ready to dive in just yet, you can check our guide to The Boys season 4 ending explained for a refresher (as Gen V's Cate Dunlap and Sam Riordan did show up and wreak havoc throughout the season).

Below, we've put together a Gen V season 2 release schedule so you know exactly when new episodes drop on Prime Video. For more, check out our guide to the other best new TV shows on the way in 2025.

Gen V season 2 is released exclusively on Prime Video in the US and the UK.

The official synopsis for Gen V season 2 reads: "As the rest of America adjusts to Homelander's iron fist, back at Godolkin University, the mysterious new Dean preaches a curriculum that promises to make students more powerful than ever.

"But school will never be the same as the trio soon learns of a secret program that goes back to the founding of Godolkin University that may have larger implications than they realize. And, somehow, Marie is a part of it."

How many episodes are in Gen V season 2?

Gen V season 2 has eight episodes, following the same episode count from season 1.

In our Gen V season 1 review, we praised the show, saying: "Despite its flaws and bumps, Gen V is a good time. It's a hot mess, but it's a damn good time."
