Audible Inc., Skybound Entertainment, and visionary media company Anonymous Content have just announced the cast and premiere date for the second season of the epic post-apocalyptic drama, Impact Winter, which debuts 13 July.

From executive producers of The Walking Dead and the writer of Pacific Rim, the groundbreaking vampire-apocalypse series is back.

Eight years after a cataclysmic comet impact blotted out the sun and triggered an endless winter in which vampires rule the Earth, two sisters — one training to fulfill her apparent destiny as humanity's savior, and the other finding purpose and her true self while protecting a group of survivors in her elder sibling's stead — are confronted with an inescapable truth: even if they succeed in fending off the biggest threat to humanity's future, they still have to face their fate.

“The hit first season of Impact Winter combined extraordinary storytelling with the highest-quality production value and performances. We’re delighted to deliver two new seasons of this powerful series that has captivated audiences across the globe,” said Zola Mashariki, Head of Audible Studios.

“With the addition of new characters and a similarly immersive soundscape, we are confident that this epic tale will continue to provide listeners with a uniquely entertaining experience.”

On its launch in February 2022, Impact Winter was Audible Plus' no.1 bestseller across all categories and the no.1 Audible Original fiction bestseller in its debut week, in addition to taking the no.3 fiction spot on Apple podcast charts.

From Travis Beacham, season two of this ambitious series brings listeners a combination of masterful storytelling, incredible binaural audio, superb performances, and extraordinary world-building, to continue the immersive story that originally enchanted audiences in 2022.
