The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 2 Premiere Date Revealed at IGN Fan Fest 2025
IGN Fan Fest 2025 brought an exclusive announcement: The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 2 premieres May 4, 2025. The reveal included an exclusive clip and interviews with key cast and crew.
Lauren Cohan (Maggie) discussed Maggie's emotional state heading into the new season, hinting at relatable family challenges amidst the apocalyptic setting. "Sadly, not everything is rosy," she stated, "Navigating family life with a teenage son and Ginny in my care adds very relatable domestic dynamics to the already challenging apocalyptic world."
Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Negan) offered insights into Negan's precarious position, now under the control of The Dama and The Croat. He described Negan as "under the thumb," struggling but ever scheming to regain control. Morgan also shared his fondness for Lucille, Negan's iconic barbed-wire bat, noting its sentimental value (though not for Cohan!).
Scott Gimple, chief content officer, teased a complex power struggle in Season 2, emphasizing a shift in dynamics and a more nuanced, politically charged conflict before things get physical.
IGN also showcased the opening minutes of the Season 2 premiere.
Mark your calendars! The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 2 arrives on AMC May 4, 2025. Stay tuned for more updates from IGN Fan Fest 2025.
