It's yet to be revealed as to whether or not fans outside of Japan will get to check out this new OVA for themselves, but it was revealed that Satoshi Hino will be joining the cast as Naiz Gruen for the new special. The story teases that Hajime further worries about the fact he'll be separated from Myu, and ends up losing touch with her during a dangerous new mission. But with no set international release date for the OVA just yet, there's plenty of time to catch up with the second season.
You can currently still find Arifureta: From Commonplace to World's Strongest's second season streaming with Funimation (as it has yet to move over to Crunchyroll). They describe the second season as such, "Transported to another world and left behind by his former friends, Hajime had to make his rise from literal rock bottom. It was in the labyrinth where he strengthened his weak magic and found several beautiful allies. Now after saving his classmates, he ventures for Erisen to escort Myu and her mother. He'll fight and defeat anyone he has to in order to find a way home—including a god!"
