‘Fate: The Winx Saga’ Season 2 Is Officially Out Today! Here’s What You Need to Know
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Addicted to Fate: The Winx Saga? Same! Hard same. Season 1 follows Bloom, a new student at a school called Alfea where fairies learn magic. Interestingly enough, the series is not, as I originally thought, based on Harry Potter fan fiction. It's instead based on Winx Club, an animated series from the 2000s that I totally missed somehow. The show was pretty much like "What if the Spice Girls were fairies?," and I'm all for that. If you went through season 1 like magic, here's everything we know about Fate: The Winx Saga season 2 now that it's ~officially~ out on Netflix.
Do we know Fate: The Winx Saga is getting a season 2?
YES. Netflix confirmed the news last February, which was *major* considering it instantly garnered many fans (myself included lol). The best part? Season 2 has two more episodes than the first.
“The six episodes in season one only scratched the surface of this incredibly rich world and the powerful fairies who inhabit it. As Bloom’s story continues to evolve, I can’t wait for you to learn even more about Aisha, Stella, Terra, and Musa! And you never know who might show up at Alfea next term,” writer Brian Young said in a statement.
AND we have a sneak peek:
Can I get a HELL YES? Netflix released this teaser trailer this past June, and it's simply *chef's kiss*:

Are there any new characters joining the series?
It can't be a new school year at Alfea without some brand new faces, and one of them will def make original Winx Club fans excited! When Netflix initially made the special announcement that production had officially begun, they *also* revealed that Brandon Grace would be joining as Grey, Éanna Hardwicke as Sebastian, and Paulina Chávez as Flora. Yep, you read that correctly! Flora!!! Check out the fun reveal below:
What will season 2 be about?
[There are some spoilers ahead for season 1. Do with that information what you will!]
Though the second season just came out, there are, like, eight of them in the original animated series, so your guess is as good as mine! The Winx will probably face off against a new villain now that they've defeated the Burned Ones. The cartoon has a rival school for witches and an antagonistic trio called the Trix (Icy, Darcy, and Stormy) that one would assume need to show up on the Netflix show eventually.
There are also Winx that would make great additions to season 2, but familiar mainstays like Bloom, Stella, Aisha, Musa are likely returns.
When will season 2 come out?
Uh, hi! That would be today! In a very special surprise this past July, Netflix released a special video going behind the scenes of season 2, and along with giving us a bigger glimpse of what we can expect next in Alfea, the streamer also revealed that the series would be back on September 16 for another wild school year. Check it out below to relive it in all its glory:
What the heck am I supposed to watch once I binge season 2?
Okay, I feel that sentiment more than you know lol. Luckily, you don't even need to leave Netflix to find more awesome shows with Winx Saga vibes while we wait for more news about season 3. There's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the spooky Sabrina The Teenage Witch reboot that also features Fate: The Winx Saga star Abigail Cowen. There's also The Magicians, a dark and sexy show about a group of misfit millennials at magic grad school. You could also get into The Order, which is about a university's secret society that does magic *and* involves werewolves!
