Netflix has confirmed that Delicious in Dungeon Season 2 will officially premiere in October 2027, after more than two years. The announcement was made during Anime Expo 2026, with production handled by Studio Trigger and distribution exclusively through Netflix. A Studio Trigger Panel established clear expectations for global distribution of the hit fantasy series, marking the return of one of Netflix’s most popular anime.
Season 2 of Delicious in Dungeon will continue its adaptation of the source material, Ryoko Kui’s manga, after the first season concluded in 2024. Although additional details have yet to be revealed, the October 2027 release window confirms that the fantasy series is set to return after its lengthy break.
Delicious in Dungeon Returns After More Than Two Years
Delicious in Dungeon became a hit following its January 2024 release on Netflix. The fantasy series follows the adventuring party led by Laios, who ventures back into a dangerous labyrinth after his sister, Falin, is swallowed by a Red Dragon. Without the resources to finance another expedition, the group survives in the dungeon by cooking the monsters they come across into creative meals as they push toward their goal.
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle Gets Major Streaming Release Date Update
Amazon Prime Video Canada unintentionally listed the record-breaking anime blockbuster for a Crunchyroll release this July.
The series has remained one of Netflix’s most anticipated anime returns ever since its first season concluded in mid-2024. Although a second season was immediately confirmed after the first season finale, there haven’t been many updates since then, leaving fans with little information beyond the second season’s confirmation.
Season 1 of the series introduced audiences to Laios and his party’s objective, but as the season played out, the anime gradually shifted to greater mysteries. With much of Ryoko Kui’s manga still left to adapt, Season 2 is expected to move into some of the story’s biggest turning points yet. While Netflix has yet to release a trailer or exact premiere date beyond October 2027, newly released visuals promise new adventures and dangers as the party continues to search for Falin.

Season 1 of Delicious in Dungeon shifted the stakes of the story after the defeat of the Red Dragon and retrieval of Falin, with the situation going from bad to worse as she falls under the control of the Mad Mage, Thistle. Yet, despite the unexpected turn of events, Laios and his party remain determined to save her by doing what they’ve learned to do best: consuming the monster half of her body.
With its major success since its release, Season 2 comes with high expectations and millions of global fans eagerly awaiting its return to streaming.
While the first season ended on a major cliffhanger, the anime has received widespread critical acclaim, reflected in its 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The original manga for the series also secured the 2024 Harvey Award for Best Manga, while the anime secured a record-breaking 16 nominations for the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards.
With its major success since its release, Season 2 comes with high expectations and millions of global fans eagerly awaiting its return to streaming. Given that the production is continuing under Studio Trigger, the next installment of Delicious in Dungeon is positioned to push the series to new heights and expand its global reach even further.
