Peacemaker season 2 release schedule: when is episode 2 out on HBO Max?

Peacemaker season 2.

Peacemaker season 2 is finally here, but keeping track of when new shows are dropping is getting increasingly harder as some streamers stick to the binge model and some roll out episodes weekly.

So, how can you watch Peacemaker season 2? Where can you stream it, and what time is it airing on TV? And do you really wanna taste it? These are (mostly) all fair questions, and, luckily, we have the answers. Below, we have the confirmed Peacemaker season 2, episode 2 release date and its US and UK air time, episode count, and full release schedule.

Like its first season, Peacemaker season 2 consists of eight episodes. James Gunn has also confirmed that each episode will end with a post-credits gag, so be sure to stick around till the very end.

Curiously, journalists were only sent the first 5 episodes of Peacemaker season 2 to review, with Gunn claiming that even his publicist hasn't seen them in an effort to keep spoilers under wraps.
