Polaris Is Back And “X-Men ’97” Episode 6 Is About To Get Personal

The mutants are finally coming home. X-Men ’97 Season 2 Episode 6, titled “Danger.exe,” drops this week — and it’s shifting away from timeline-hopping chaos to something much more personal: a familiar face returning to Xavier’s mansion.

When Does X-Men ’97 Episode 6 Release?

Episode 6 arrives on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, streaming exclusively on Disney+. New episodes drop at 12:00 AM PT / 3:00 AM ET, which lines up to 8:00 AM BST for UK viewers — check a time zone converter for your exact local window.

What’s “Danger.exe” About?

This episode directly continues the fallout from “Weapon X, Lies, and DVDs,” which saw Wolverine reunite with Team X, get infected by the Brood, and undergo another adamantium bonding process to survive. “Danger.exe” now brings former X-Man Polaris back to Xavier’s mansion after a long absence — a reappearance that carries real emotional weight for longtime fans of both this show and the original ’90s series.

The title itself is a nod to the Danger Room, the X-Men’s iconic training facility, hinting that the new threat on campus may come from the mansion’s own technology turning hostile.

What’s Left This Season

With four episodes remaining after episode 5, the back half of Season 2 refocuses on the central conflict between Apocalypse and the X-Men across different universes. The remaining schedule: Episode 7 (July 29), Episode 8 (August 5), and the season finale (August 12) — all keeping the show’s consistent Wednesday release rhythm intact.
