Hunter is an expert tracker, Tech is the brains, Wrecker is the chaos-addicted brawn, Crosshair the toothpick-chewing sniper, and former ARC trooper Echo, who became Clone Force 99’s fifth member after being rescued by the squad, is the perfect half-droid, half-clone partner for Tech.
Declared enemies of the state after the execution of Order 66, yet another order that Clone Force 99 appears to have defied, Hunter and his crew embark on their biggest mission yet - one of survival and self-discovery.
Joined by the mysterious Omega, they’ll meet some beloved character along the way, including Fennec Shand and Saw Gerrera. Here’s how to watch The Bad Batch online with Disney Plus.
