Since its debut on February 25th, Vikings: Valhalla has been a hit for Netflix. The series ranks #1 on the Netflix Top 10 for the week of 2/28 with 113.38M hours viewed. While also making the Top 10 in 90 countries. Vikings: Valhalla had over 80M hours viewed during its first two days the week prior bringing it to an impressive 194M hours viewed in its first nine days. Needless to say, with viewership like that, it’s no surprise to see Valhalla return for Season 2 and 3. If you haven’t checked out the first season, you can find it now on Netflix. You can also find my Non-Spoiler Review at the end of this article.

‘VIKINGS: VALHALLA’ SEASON 1 SYNOPSIS

Season One chronicles the heroic adventures of some of the most famous Vikings who ever lived — the legendary explorer Leif Eriksson (Sam Corlett), his fiery and headstrong sister Freydis Eriksdotter (Frida Gustavsson), and the ambitious Nordic prince Harald Sigurdsson (Leo Suter). As tensions between the Vikings and the English royals reach a bloody breaking point and as the Vikings themselves clash over their conflicting Christian and pagan beliefs, these three Vikings begin an epic journey that will take them across oceans and through battlefields, from Kattegat to England and beyond, as they fight for survival and glory.

WHEN TO EXPECT SEASON 2 AND 3

Production of Season Two of Valhalla has wrapped, with the series expected to return to Netflix audiences around the world in 2023. Season Three is set to begin production this spring. The drama series was previously announced as a 24-episode pickup, the official announcement from Netflix confirms a total of three, eight-episode seasons. The main cast, Sam Corlett (Leif Eriksson), Frida Gustavsson (Freydis Eriksdotter) and Leo Suter (Harald Sigurdsson) will also be returning.
