The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Powerseason 2 is finally underway, and episode 4 is the next to hit Prime Video. Amazon takes a different route with its streaming releases, often putting out a batch of episodes at once before releasing one weekly for the remainder of the series. This has been the case for theLord of the Ringsspinoff series, with a three-episode premiere aimed to get audiences hooked for the remainder of the season. Now,Rings of Powerseason 2, episode 4, is almost here.
The Rings of Power’s first three episodeswere released on August 11, 2025, effectively jumping back into Middle-earth during the Second Age. Season 1 set the stage, which means the way is now clear for season 2 to really dive into the action. The first handful of episodes was undoubtedly a good start. Halbrand—actually Sauron—has begun to really set about his mission of creating the titular Rings of Power, while Elves like Galadriel, Elrond, and Gil-galad set plans to stop the Dark Lord.The story continues inRings of Powerepisode 4, but when can audiences officially tune in?

We Can Expect Between 9 & 10 Total Hours In Rings OF Power Season 2
So far, episodes inRings of Powerseason 2 have come in just over an hour long, withepisode 1 standing as the longest at 1 hour and 16 minutes. This checks out with season 1, which also contained eight episodes. In this previous installment, episodes 5, 7, and 8 were the longest, with 1 hour and 12 minutes. Given these averages, we can likely expect the remaining episodes ofRings of Powerseason 2 to stick to this general duration, with an estimated total runtime between 9 and 10 hours.
1 h 16 min
Episode 2, “Where the Stars are Strange"
1 h 2 min
Episode 3, “The Eagle and the Sceptre"

ThePrime Video seriescould turn things around with an extendedRings of Powerseason 2 finale. However, this wasn’t the case in season 1, where episode 8 stuck with that 1-hour-and-12-minute length. Most likely, given the number of episodes and the lengths of the first three, we can expect the same inRings of Powerseason 2. Regardless, there is a lot to look forward to in these upcoming Middle-earth adventures.
