While Power Rangers Dino Charge is still on hiatus, Saban has officially announced the second season of the show, airing in 2016 on Nickelodeon.
Following suit with Samurai and Megaforce, the new season will be entitled Power Rangers Dino Super Charge. Moreover, the second half of Dino Charge, the first season of the series, will return in August. The definite date is not yet set.
The released promotional photo reveals the super charged armor for the Red Ranger and a curiously absent skirt for the Pink Ranger. The press release, meanwhile, confirms a few vague spoilers — including, for anyone not familiar with the Sentai material, that there will be whopping team of ten Rangers total by season’s end, a first for a Power Rangers series.
