Can I Watch Monarch Season 2 in the UAE?

Yes. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 is fully available on Apple TV+ in the UAE with no geo-restrictions. Episodes premiere globally on Fridays, which means they land Friday morning UAE time (around 6 AM GST). Arabic subtitles are available from day one.

What Is Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 About?

Season 2 picks up with the fate of Monarch — and the world — hanging in the balance, as buried secrets reunite heroes and villains on Kong’s Skull Island while a mysterious new Titan rises from the sea.

If Season 1 was about discovering that monsters are real, Season 2 is about what happens when you can’t put that genie back in the bottle. The big hook this time is Titan X — a massive bioluminescent sea creature that makes Godzilla look like a warm-up act. Think Lovecraftian nightmare with an actual mythology behind it.

The show continues its dual-timeline structure, weaving the 1950s origins of Monarch with the present-day chaos. Keiko (Mari Yamamoto) is back after being trapped in Axis Mundi — but thanks to time dilation, she’s now effectively the same age as her granddaughter. Lee Shaw (Kurt Russell) somehow survived his sacrifice in the Season 1 finale and is back in the mix. Kong gets significantly more screen time this season, and Godzilla shows up too.

New guest stars include Amber Midthunder, Cliff Curtis, Dominique Tipper, and Takehiro Hira. Early reviews are positive, with critics praising the bigger kaiju action and stronger character work. It currently holds a 78% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Do I Need to Watch Season 1 First?

Yes, absolutely watch Season 1 before starting Season 2. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters has deeply interconnected storylines that carry forward — the Randa family secrets, Lee Shaw’s sacrifice at Axis Mundi, Keiko’s time displacement, May’s Apex Cybernetics backstory. Season 2 picks up directly where Season 1 left off with no recap hand-holding.

Season 1 is 10 episodes on Apple TV+, no extra cost with your subscription. It’s also part of the wider Monsterverse franchise (Godzilla, Kong: Skull Island, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Godzilla vs. Kong, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire), though you don’t strictly need to have seen the films to follow the show.

How Does Monarch Fit Into the Monsterverse?
