Maybe the most exciting news for fans so far, is that Season 2 of The Masked Singer will feature all-new costumes.
At this time, we know that the following will be included: Butterfly, Eagle, Egg, Flamingo, Fox, Leopard, Panda, Rottweiler, and Skeleton.
"I think my favorite costume is yet to be revealed. If I could describe it to you, I would. But all I can say is that it looks a bit like a thingamajig." Wade said. "I know it doesn't make sense. But when you see it, you'll go, 'Oh, right, I get it.' So look out for the one that looks like a thingamajig. Or a whatchamacallit. You will get that! It's a cryptic clue, but it's a clue."

In addition to the new costumes, it has been announced that Season 2 of The Masked Singer will feature more contestants.
Season 1 of the show featured 10 contestants competing to be the champ over the course of nine episodes.
Season 2 will have a total of 16 contestants, and will presumably run for around 15 episodes, assuming there is another double elimination week like Season 1 had.

Something else that fans can expect in Season 2 of The Masked Singer is tougher clues.
Though, Wade clarified that they won't be "ridiculously harder," adding, "For example, if someone were a sports person, you might reveal that; you might not reveal the specific sport. You start to give people those clues, rather than just random stuff. But also the judges and the viewers drive themselves down avenues as well."
"Sometimes we'll do like a clue in a package and the judge will pick up on it, and they go way the wrong way," he continued. "And you're like, 'Oh, well, that's not our fault.' They just decided to go the wrong way. They saw boxing gloves, and they decided it was a boxer or whatever it might've been. But the clues are harder, definitely."

Another new feature for Season 2 of The Masked Singer is something called "The Smackdown."
Wade explained is by saying, "The way it works is there's four people, two sing-offs, and then the judges and the audience decide who the winners are of those and that leaves two left. And they do what we call a Smackdown — they basically sing a short song back and forth to each other, but really in each other's faces, in a quite comedic way."
"It's supposed to be funny. And then whoever loses that is unmasked," he added. "So we added that element."
