AMC Networks has ordered second seasons of The Walking Dead: Dead City and The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon.

The Walking Dead: Dead City follows Maggie and Negan as they travel into a post-apocalyptic Manhattan. In The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, which is set to make its series debut on September 10, Daryl washes ashore in France and must piece together how he got there and why.

Dead City originally debuted in June and became the number one season premiere in the history of AMC+ in terms of viewership across all new and returning series, including The Walking Dead, with viewership on the streamer and on AMC growing with each week. The season finale aired on July 23.

The Daryl Dixon series will debut on AMC and AMC+ on September 10 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Also in the Walking Dead Universe, the second half of the eighth and final season of Fear the Walking Dead is slated to return this fall, and the untitled Rick and Michonne series is set to premiere in 2024.

“This next chapter in the Walking Dead Universe continues to thrive with a terrific inaugural season for Dead City and highly anticipated new journey for fan-favorite character Daryl Dixon coming in September,” said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. “We can’t wait to bring Dead City fans back to the epicenter of Manhattan for more zip-lining action with Maggie and Negan. And, ahead of its debut, we’re thrilled to double down on Daryl as we bring the apocalypse to France, transforming Notre Dame, Pont du Gard and other iconic locales into an apocalyptic landscape unlike anything we’ve seen before.”
