The Mandalorian season 2: How to watch the season finale on Disney Plus today

Disney Plus subscribers will need to say goodbye for now to Baby Yoda. Season 2 of The Mandalorian wraps up with episode 8 (a.k.a. Chapter 16) on Friday, and the show won't return until this time next year on Disney's streaming service. So, clear your calendar for Friday evening and get ready for the season 2 finale. (What am I saying? No one has Friday night plans anymore.)

See below for a spoiler-free look at how you can watch season 2 of The Mandalorian on Disney Plus.

How much does Disney Plus cost?

In the US, the service costs $7 a month. You can also save a bit by plunking down $70 for the annual plan, which works out to $5.83 a month. Unlike Mulan, which cost an additional $30 for US viewers who didn't wish to wait until it became free, The Mandalorian is free without delay to all Disney Plus subscribers.

International pricing and availability varies. In Australia, Disney Plus costs AU$9 a month or AU$90 a year; UK residents pay £6 per month or £60 a year; and Canadians are charged CA$9 a month, or CA$90 a year. See our full Disney Plus explainer for more international pricing.

How do I group-watch Disney Plus?

Even if your Star Wars-loving family and friends are in different houses, you can still watch The Mandalorian together (sort of) with Disney Plus' GroupWatch feature. You'll find the GroupWatch option to the right of the play button, and you can invite up to six people to all stream the show at the same time. Once you're watching together, you can share emojis to react to the action. Here are the full details on how to group-watch Disney Plus.   

Is there a trailer I can watch?

The official Mandalorian season 2 trailer dropped in September, and a special-look trailer hit in October. You can watch the official trailer below. 

And you can watch the special look trailer on YouTube or embedded below.

What's the episode release schedule?

Like the first season, season 2 comprises eight episodes, released each Friday. And as it did last season, Disney is calling each episode a "chapter" and started season 2 with chapter 9. Here's the schedule -- note our recaps contain spoilers:
