Get ready for round two of this corporate thriller.
It’s a long-awaited moment for fans of the dystopian thriller Severance, which premiered on Apple TV Plus in 2022. At last, the second season of this unsettling and irresistible drama is slated to drop. Let the countdown begin.
Severance follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott) and his colleagues at a fictitious biotech company called Lumon, who have undergone a brain surgery that separates their work and personal lives. When they’re in the office, they have no recollection of their lives outside and vice versa. But strange things start to happen, including the sudden axing of a longtime colleague, which pushes Mark and his colleagues to question the company they work for and its motives. It’s a riveting commentary on work-life balance (or the lack thereof), made stronger by understated yet memorable characters and a focused storyline.
Season 1 ends on such a compelling cliffhanger that you’ll be desperate to jump right into season 2 at the earliest chance. And at last, the wait is almost over. So without further ado, here’s everything you need to know about the next season of Severance, including how to watch the highly anticipated show with a VPN.
How to Watch Severance Season 2 on Apple TV Plus
The second season of Severance lands on Apple TV Plus on Friday, January 17. There are 10 episodes, which will be released on a weekly basis — likely leaving viewers on the edge of their seats in between airings.
You also now have the option to access Apple TV Plus through another streamer: Prime Video. The retail and tech giants have struck a deal to offer Apple’s streaming service as a $10 monthly add-on for Prime Video customers. That can make it easier to access the platform and give it added visibility — therefore simplifying the process of binging Severance Season 2 (or whatever you’re watching).
And if you’d like to catch up on Season 1 before activating an Apple TV Plus subscription, you can do so for free on the Roku Channel (though you’ll have to sit through ads).
Subscribe to Apple TV Plus for $10 a month. If you’d like to give it a try before committing, you can sign up for a 7-day free trial. And if you’ve purchased a new Apple device, you’ll get three months of Apple TV Plus free, as long as you redeem the offer within 90 days.
How to watch Severance from anywhere with a VPN
What if you’re traveling abroad and want to stream Severance while away from home? With a VPN, you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the series from anywhere in the world. There are other good reasons to use a VPN for streaming, too.
A VPN is the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds by encrypting your traffic. Using a VPN is also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins. Streaming TV can be a bit smoother with a reliable, quality VPN that’s passed our tests and security standards.
You can use a VPN to stream content legally as long as VPNs are legal in your country and you have a valid subscription to the streaming service you’re using. The US and Canada are among the countries where VPNs are legal, but we advise against streaming or downloading content on illegal torrent sites. We recommend ExpressVPN, but you may opt for another provider from our best list such as Surfshark or NordVPN.
ExpressVPN is our current pick for the most secure and reliable VPN service. It’s fast, works across multiple devices and offers stable streams. ExpressVPN is normally $13 a month, but you can save money with an annual plan. There’s also a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Follow the VPN provider’s instructions for installation and choose a country where Severance is streaming on Apple TV Plus. Before you open the streaming app, make sure you’re connected to your VPN using your selected region. If you want to stream Severance on more than one device, it’s possible you’ll need to configure each one to ensure you are signed in. Go to settings and check your network connections to verify you’re logged in and connected to your VPN account. Now you’re ready to open Apple TV Plus to stream.
If you run into issues with streaming, first make sure your VPN is up and running on its encrypted IP address. Double-check that you’ve followed installation instructions correctly and you’ve picked the right geographical area for viewing. If you still encounter connection problems, you may need to reboot your device. Close all apps and windows, restart your device and connect to your VPN first. Note that some streaming services have restrictions on VPN access.
