Mythic Quest will return to Apple TV+ this May and a new trailer gives us a closer look at the show’s second season.

With the quarantine finally over, the new season of Mythic Quest finds everyone back in the office (well, almost everyone), attempting to build upon the success of Raven’s Banquet by launching an epic new expansion, but Ian (Rob McElhenney) and the newly promoted co-creative director, Poppy (Charlotte Nicdao), struggle with the game’s direction. Meanwhile, CW (F. Murray Abraham) reconciles some unresolved issues from his past, the testers (Ashly Burch and Imani Hakim) test the bounds of an office romance, and David (David Hornsby) loses yet another woman in his life as Jo (Jessie Ennis) leaves him to assist Brad (Danny Pudi).

You can find out what happens on 7th May, when Season 2 premieres. Can’t wait until then? A bonus episode drops on Friday 16th April, exploring the team’s attempt to transition back to the normality after a previous bonus episode featured them working from home. (Read more about that here.)

In the meantime, here’s the new video:
