The first season’s premise was based around a 5-member group called Clone Force 99, with one member named Crosshair opposing the Jedi & his squad coaxed by Order 66. Following this, the story orbited around the rest of the members of Clone Force 99 and their efforts to find a safe hold and survive.

The trailer didn’t reveal much at the same time giving as much was needed to raise the bar & give rise to the expectations of fans; as they say, a little mystery goes a long way by still keeping the plot very sacrilegious & secretive it has increased the views the trailer is getting, with the newness in the season not being very drastic the makers have managed to keep the originality of the series intact while diving into a new, refreshing storyline.
Total episodes
While the new trailer has hooked everyone, there is still no clarity about how many episodes the show will have. There hasn’t been any chatter or speculation about the total number of episodes the show is going to be divided into. The first season of the show, though, was a 16-part series.
