Netflix just tossed its final coins to Henry Cavill (at least for Geralt), as it's time to watch The Witcher season 3 volume 2. This three episode batch is the end of his run, and he's to be replaced by Liam Hemsworth.

The Witcher season 3 volume 2 streaming details

The Witcher season 3 volume 2 debuted today (Thursday, July 27) at 3:01 a.m. ET on Netflix.

The last we saw of The Witcher season 3 put Geralt and Yennefer (Anya Chalotra) into the fire, as Vilgefortz (Mahesh Jadu) revealed himself as the big bad of the series.  But will his attempt to pull off a coup at the Conclave of Mages at Thanedd work? 

Ciri (Freya Allan) and Jaskier (Joey Batey) are nearby and at risk, but it appears that won't last for long. In the below trailer, you'll see the princess finds herself in some kind of desert.

Our The Witcher season 3 part 1 review showed some fatigue in the series, at least for anything not involving the core four. Here's everything you need to watch this half, even though our The Witcher season 3 volume 2 review is even more negative. Scroll down for the trailer and cast info.
