When is Ahsoka Episode 8 coming to Disney Plus? Ahsoka recently introduced Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen) and Ezra Bridger (Eman Esfandi) to live-action, and Anthony Daniels also made his surprise return as C-3PO. With the finale going to be released soon, fans are wondering what will happen to Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) and how the conflict against Thrawn will unfold.
Ahsoka's release schedule has changed from Disney Plus shows in the past. Depending on your time zone, it might be harder than usual to keep track of when the next installment is coming. The show is arriving earlier than other Star Wars shows, so depending on when you're reading this, you might have to stay up late or set your alarm clock.
So if you're wondering when exactly Ahsoka Episode 8 will be available to stream in the US, UK, and other countries, the episode count of the series, and when you can expect future episodes to arrive, here's everything you need to know about the final episode of Ahsoka.

Ahsoka Episode 8 Plot
In the final episode of Ahsoka Season 1, the Jedi protagonist faces a significant threat from Thrawn, which creates a sense of anticipation for a confrontation between the two. Although there might be some new elements introduced, as observed in recent episodes, the main focus of the plot will be on avoiding immediate dangers.
Thrawn already found out that Ahsoka's mentor was Anakin Skywalker, a.k.a. Darth Vader. Since the Grand Admiral is familiar with Anakin's powers, he can probably predict his former apprentice's moves. This may give the villain an advantage over Ahsoka in the season finale. However, the protagonist will have Ezra Bridger and Sabine, both Force-sensitive, on her side supporting her.
Ahsoka Episode 8 might show Thrawn manage to escape Peridea, as he was seen loading mysterious caskets on his ship, so it's likely that we will see future battles against him in another location. We might also see the redemption of Shin Hati, but some fans are already speculating that she might join Thrawn. Of course, fans are also looking forward to the late Ray Stevenson's final appearance as Baylan Skoll.
