There was a time when game shows were a very popular genre among the viewers of television but nowadays it feels like the genre is close to extinction. Nowadays people are more focused on creating television shows with intricate plots and characters with multiple seasons to keep the audience engaged.
However, there are still some game shows available in the market that are trying to survive the brutal competition with their unique concepts. Alter Ego is one such show that is trying to keep the game show genre alive in recent times with its unique concept hosted by Rocsi Diaz.

This television show has been airing since September 22, 2021 and finished airing the first season three years ago.

When is Alter Ego season 2 coming out?
People who were excited to watch the second season of Alter Ego were shattered to hear the news of the cancellation of the game show after just one season.
The fans were waiting for a new season to happen for so long but the news of Alter Ego being shelved hit them like a truck and now there is not going to be a season 2 anymore.
[adinserter block=”8″]
There is no longer a need to predict the release date of season 2 of Alter Ego as the show has been officially shelved by the producers which means we will have to watch something else to fill the void in our hearts.
Will Season 2 Of Alter Ego get cancelled or Renewed?
People who used to love game shows as kid were excited to something new hit their screens when Alter Ego was announced back in May of 2021.
The first season has finished airing since then and the fans were generally happy about getting a new game show after all these years of living in nostalgia. Now the fans are looking forward to watching season 2 of Alter Ego at some point but they are unaware of the release date.
After scanning the internet for hours, the fans returned empty-handed as they were unable to find any intel related to season 2. We hate to be the bearer of bad news but Alter Ego has officially been cancelled by the studio which means that there will never be another season of this game show in the future.
Storyline of Alter Ego: What it able to be about?
Since Alter Ego is a game show with real contestants, there is no definite plot to the show but a format does exist that we believe would have remained the same for the second season if it would have happened in the future.
The concept of Alter Ego is very unique and it featured judges like Alanis Morissette, Nick Lachey, Grimes, and Will.i.am with Rocsi Diaz hosting the game show. The show involved an idea where the technology of motion capture using mocap suits would be used to bring the dream look of contestants to life.
[adinserter block=”3″]
The contestants would be taking part in a signing competition where they would have to sing not as themselves, but as a dream avatar they would create which they would have to control using the mocap suit to perform in front of the judges.
This would create a whole new dream look for the contestants as the performers they have always wanted to be to win the show with their pure talent and unique looks.
The singers would have to perform using their stage name in a mocap suit to look like the singers they have always wanted to be while qualifying through different rounds where elimination is the biggest threat.
Going through these singing rounds as your created avatar will bring you to the next round of Alter Ego which will ultimately end when there is only one singer left who will win the show.
What happened at the end of Alter Ego season 1 and another finale contestants
For the people who missed out on the finale of Alter Ego, here is what went down! The finale of Alter Ego appeared on 8 December 2021 and the finalists were ready to show their performances on stage to all the judges.
After spending 10 weeks on the game show going through various rounds while singing as their created avatars, it was time for the judges to select the winner from the remaining finalists.
[adinserter block=”6″]
Our finalists were Samaera Hirsch (Misty Rose), Kyara Tetreault (Seven), Jacob Thomsen (Dipper Scott), and Israa Darwich (Night Journey) and the judges had a tough choice to make. After the finalists gave their final performance, the judges chose Jacob Thomsen (Dipper Scott) as the winner of the first season of Alter Ego.
His happiness was visible on his face as he won $100,000 but that was not it, the judge will.i.am also promised Jacob that he would pay for his medical bills which was a very down-to-earth gesture, to say the least.
Who are the New Judges in Season 2?
Before Fox revealed that Alter Ego was getting cancelled, everyone thought that
would return as judges in season 2 of the game show.
[adinserter block=”4″]
However, these speculations died with the dreams of ever getting a season 2 which means the names above were the names everyone was expecting to see make a return on Alter Ego.

Who Will Be the Part of Alter Ego Season 2?
After the first season ended with Jacob Thomson winning the ultimate prize and a generous offer by Will.i.am, the fans were excited to see possible contestants for season 2 of the show.
Unfortunately, the cancellation of Alter Ego cleared the possibility of getting any new contestants as there were not going to be any new seasons in the future.

How to participate in Alter Ego?
You would have had to fill out some online application on the official site of Fox to get a chance to participate in the next season of Alter Ego. However, after the game show got cancelled, there is no way to take part in the next season as there is not going to be one.
[adinserter block=”7″]
How is the show rated so far?
Alter Ego was mildly popular among the fans as the concept of the show was quite unique and something that was not seen before. However, it felt like the game show was trying to make the simple concept of a singing competition more complex than it needs to be by adding a motion capture aspect to it.
The idea sounds fun on paper but the execution felt poor as the avatars felt very cheap in design and the critics were not kind to the show either as IMDB gave Alter Ago a 4.6/10.
[adinserter block=”10″]
How many episodes will be there in Alter Ego season 2?
With Alter Ego being cancelled, fans can only dream of the many things they could have seen in season 2 of Alter Ego. One question that still haunts these avid viewers of the famous game show is how many episodes they could have gotten in season 2 of Alter Ego.
Well, looking at the first season of the game show, we can see there were a total of 11 episodes so maybe we could have gotten 11 episodes in the second season as well.
Unfortunately, there are some questions we will never get an answer to, and as much as that sucks we have to live with it.
Maybe in a perfect universe, Alter Ego never got cancelled and the fans there got to stream a season 2 the very next year when season 1 ended.
