Finn the Human and Jake the Dog are heading back into the Land of Ooo for a second run of short, self-contained adventures. Season 2 of Adventure Time: Side Quests arrives as a full drop, so every new episode lands on the same day rather than trickling out week by week.
Quick answer: In the United States, Season 2 arrives on October 2, 2026; Disney+ and Hulu will stream all 20 episodes.
Where and when to watch Season 2
Disney+ and Hulu add the new season on October 2. The release follows season one’s format: all 20 episodes arrive together, letting you finish them in one sitting or spread your viewing out.
Season 1 set the pattern back on June 29, 2026, when all 20 of its episodes premiered together on the same two services. Side Quests was originally lined up for a Cartoon Network debut in the U.S. before the plan shifted to Disney’s platforms, making it the first Adventure Time project to stream there.
Inside the Season 2 trailer
The trailer immediately sets a frantic, goofy tone: to cross Ooo, Finn and Jake turn Jake’s stretched body into a zipline trolley; then Finn’s grip fails and he plunges into the abyss.
From there, Princess Bubblegum and Peppermint Butler strap mind-link helmets onto the duo inside a lab, using a ritual circle and candles to send them into the dream world to fight a demon. The season announces itself when Finn and Jake slot a cartridge into BMO and cheer from the couch as the “New Season” text pops up.
The rest of the cut races through the kind of chaos the show is built on. Chocolate floods the Candy Kingdom, Finn and Jake tumble into a monster’s mouth, and Princess Bubblegum fights back with a giant soft-serve ice cream cone rigged up as a drill against a huge creature’s tooth. Marceline and Jake jam out on a rocky peak, and the pair drift through deep space with wings before Jake shapeshifts into a dolphin.
Spookier beats show up too, including a night-time graveyard where a giant haunted tree wakes up and demands candy from Finn. It all wraps with the pair striking a heroic pose atop a mountain under the series title card, followed by the October 2 release date on a Disney+ and Hulu end screen.
Cast and returning characters
The voice lineup carries over from the first season, mixing longtime Adventure Time performers with the newer take on a younger Finn.
- Sasha Knight as Finn the Human
- John DiMaggio as Jake the Dog
- Hynden Walch as Princess Bubblegum
- Tom Kenny as Ice King
- Olivia Olson as Marceline
- Niki Yang as BMO
BMO, Peppermint Butler, and the Banana Guard all turn up in the trailer alongside the core group, keeping the supporting bench of familiar Ooo faces intact.

Who made it
Nate Cash is both showrunner and executive producer for the Cartoon Network Studios production. Victor Courtright oversees the direction, joined by Niki Yang, Katie Aldworth, and Rose Feduk. Other key staff are Darrick Bachman as story editor, Nick Cross as art director, and Matthew Janszen as composer.
Side Quests is built as a soft reboot that leans on the lighter, standalone feel of early Adventure Time. That means dungeon crawls, odd jobs, and playful run-ins with classic villains rather than heavy serialized arcs, which keeps Season 2 easy to jump into whether you are a longtime fan or brand new to Ooo. Mark October 2 if you want to watch it all at once.
