I got so excited when I checked this because I love talking about this series — good news first: the sequel, 'The Wild Robot Escapes', does have audiobook editions already out, so you don’t need to wait for a future release. I’ve listened to it a couple of times while doing chores and on long walks; most major retailers and library services carry it. If you use Audible, Apple Books, Google Play, or Libro.fm you can usually find an unabridged audiobook version; libraries often have it through OverDrive/Libby or Hoopla if you prefer to borrow.
If you’re trying to find a particular edition or narrator, it helps to look at the product page where sample clips are available — that way you can check tone and pacing before buying or borrowing. Another tip: for kids, I’ll sometimes pick a slightly slower narration speed so they catch the gentle worldbuilding and the emotional beats of Roz’s journey. And if you’re hunting for a dramatized production versus a straight reading, the product description will say so. Personally, hearing Roz’s reactions and the little robot sounds performed in an audiobook adds a layer of warmth that I love, especially when listening with younger listeners during a car ride. It felt cozy and thoughtful to me.

Hunting around for release info turned into a small weekend quest for me, and I can tell you what I found about the sequel's audio life. The book that people call 'The Wild Robot 2' is actually published under the title 'The Wild Robot Escapes,' and its audiobook was released not long after the print edition in 2018. That means it's been around for a while on major platforms like Audible, Apple Books, Google Play, and the big library services such as OverDrive/Libby and Hoopla. I usually check those first because children's audiobooks often drop simultaneously with or very close to the hardcover release.
If you're trying to track down a specific narrator or edition, there are sometimes UK vs. US releases with slightly different catalog entries, but the core audiobook content is widely available. I found that libraries frequently carry it as an e-audio loan, which was a lifesaver when I wanted to listen during a long commute. Anyway, I always enjoy hearing Roz's odd little mechanical chirps come through my headphones; the narration gives the island a whole new atmosphere for me.

For anyone who prefers listening over flipping pages, good news: 'The Wild Robot' has been available as an audiobook since the book first hit shelves. The original hardcover from Little, Brown Books for Young Readers was published in March 2016, and the unabridged audiobook was released at the same time, so you don’t have to wait for a later audio edition. That means you can grab it on major audiobook platforms like Audible, Apple Books, Google Play, and many indie-friendly stores such as Libro.fm.
If you’re library-first like me, check OverDrive/Libby or Hoopla — public libraries often carry the audiobook for borrowing, which is a lifesaver for families or anyone who doesn’t want to buy multiple copies. There are usually sample clips available on the retailer pages so you can test the narrator’s style, and many editions are downloadable for offline listening. I find listening while going for a walk or cooking gives the story a cozy, cinematic vibe; 'The Wild Robot' really shines through audio, especially during the quieter, contemplative moments.

Good news for audiobook fans: the audiobook for 'The Wild Robot Escapes' is already out and you can grab it right now if you want to listen. I dug through the usual stores and libraries and found it available from major audiobook retailers and library apps, so you don't have to wait for a special release — it actually came out around the same time as the paperback a few years back. If you're picky about formats, look for the unabridged edition so you get the whole story without cuts.
If you prefer to own a copy, Audible, Apple Books, and Google Play typically have it for purchase. If you want to borrow it, Libby/OverDrive and your local library network often have digital loans; sometimes a title's hold list is long, but that's where wishlists and automatic checkouts shine. I like listening on walks and hearing the wilderness described — the audiobook really brings the little moments of the island to life, and I still smile when Roz figures things out.

Here's the scoop: the audiobook of 'The Wild Robot' came out on March 15, 2016. I double-checked because I love lining up audio releases with the print versions, and this one was released essentially alongside the hardcover so listeners could dive in the same time readers did.
I adore how accessible it felt — libraries, Audible, and most retail audiobook platforms had it right away. The audio edition is unabridged, so you get the whole cozy, slightly melancholic robot-and-nature vibe that Peter Brown wrote. If you haven't tried it, listening to Roz learn from the island creatures adds a warmth that the illustrations complement when you go back to the physical book. I'm still partial to the way the narrator gives small, thoughtful inflections to Roz's discoveries, and it made my second read feel fresh.

I haven’t seen an official narrator announced for a new sequel to 'The Wild Robot' yet, at least from the usual places I check. I follow the author, publisher, and audiobook retailers closely, and so far there hasn’t been a press release or audible page listing a narrator under a forthcoming sequel title. That doesn’t mean it won’t be announced soon—publishers often save narrator news for a dedicated reveal or drop it when preorders go live.
If you’re impatient like me, the best signals to watch are the author’s social posts, the publisher’s newsletter, and Audible/Libro.fm/Apple Books listings. Sometimes narrators get teased on Instagram reels or in short clips on TikTok, and other times the narrator is revealed in a publisher’s catalog PDF. I also keep an eye on library distributor pages and big indie bookstore newsletters because they sometimes post metadata before consumer storefronts do. Personally, I’d love a narrator who can give the robots a gentle, curious tone while making animal characters pop, so I’m hoping for someone with range and warmth. Either way, I’m buzzing to hear it when they announce it.

This one made me go digging through my bookmarks and feeds — I wanted a straight answer for you. As of the latest buzz I could find, there hasn’t been a public, confirmed narrator announced specifically for the third installment in the 'The Wild Robot' series. Publishers sometimes hold narrator details until close to release, or they quietly stick with whoever narrated the earlier books to keep continuity. That means the safest bet is that either the original narrator will return, or the audiobook will be revealed on major audiobook platforms like Audible and on the publisher’s audiobook page once everything is finalized.
If you’re the type who cares about continuity (I absolutely do — the voice that introduced Roz becomes part of how I picture the whole island), then watching the author’s social posts and the audiobook distributor’s listings will be the fastest way to know for sure. Fans often spot narrator credits in preorders, sample clips, or press releases. Until something official drops, conversations in fan groups tend to spin hopeful guesses, but none of those are confirmation.
Personally, I’m rooting for a narrator who can do tender compassion for Roz, a subtle performance for the island creatures, and just enough crispness for the little moments of humor. Whatever the eventual choice, I’ll be queueing it up and comparing notes with fellow readers — excited to hear Roz’s next chapter come to life.

If you mean the sequel to Peter Brown's book—'The Wild Robot Escapes'—then yes, that's already been produced in audiobook form, and if you're asking about a hypothetical future installment, the odds are very good it would get one too.
I say that because children's bestsellers like this usually follow a predictable path: print, paperback, ebook, and then audio. Publishers know parents and kids love read-alongs for car rides and bedtime, so they'll typically commission narrators early. To find the specific edition I grabbed, I looked on Audible and my library app (Libby/OverDrive) and found a narrated version with a sample I could preview. If you prefer library borrowing, your local library or an interlibrary request is often the fastest free route.
If a new sequel hasn't been announced as audio yet, you can still help speed things up: ask your library to request it, follow the publisher or the author on social media for release news, or look for an Audible preorder. Personal tip: I always listen to the sample before buying—sometimes the narrator really makes or breaks it for me.

Big news: yes, there is an audiobook edition of 'The Wild Robot', and it's one of those listens that quietly sneaks up on you. I picked it up on Audible a while back and the version I listened to is the unabridged recording narrated by Kate Simses. Her voice is warm and expressive in a way that fits the gentle, thoughtful tone of the story — perfect for kids and grown-ups alike. If you like sampling first, most platforms let you listen to a short clip before buying.
You can find the audiobook on Audible, Apple Books, Google Play, and independent sellers like Libro.fm. Libraries often carry it through OverDrive/Libby too, which is how I borrowed it the first time. There are sometimes bundled deals where you buy the ebook and get the audiobook at a discount (Whispersync for Voice if you're in the Kindle/Audible ecosystem), which is handy if you like switching between reading and listening. Also worth mentioning: the sequel 'The Wild Robot Escapes' has an audiobook as well, so if you get hooked you'll have more listening ahead.
Personally, I loved listening during long walks and on drives — the narrator makes Roz's experiences feel intimate without being overly dramatic. If you want something that reads like a cozy, thoughtful campfire story but with modern, robotic charm, this audiobook is a great pick.

If you're tracking the release date for 'The Wild Robot 2' and want to know whether that date covers audiobook and ebook, here's how I see it from behind the counter of my mental bookstore.
I usually find that publishers list a single official publication date that applies to the hardcover, ebook, and audiobook, but there are exceptions. Many mainstream publishers release the ebook and audiobook on the same day as the print edition so readers can choose instantly — that’s what I expect first. However, production schedules for audio (narrator availability, studio time, final mixing) can cause the audio edition to come a little later. Also, some ebooks are released as preorder files or available a few days early from certain retailers.
To be practical, I check the publisher’s page for the title and the product pages at Amazon/Kindle, Audible, Apple Books, and Barnes & Noble. Library services like OverDrive/Libby and Hoopla sometimes have the audiobook on the same day, but library availability can lag due to licensing. If you want certainty, look for separate listings (ISBNs or ASINs) for print, ebook, and audio — each format often has its own identifier. Personally, I usually reserve my spot on Audible and slap a pre-order on Kindle so I don't miss either format, and I’m already excited to hear the narrator bring the characters to life.
