The trailer showcased what is to come
The trailer begins with two minutes of dialogue free content as the camera pans across the damage and bloodshed caused in season one's finale. The focus in the first few minutes is on the massacre that occurred. While there is no dialogue of any kind from any of the characters shown in the trailer there are glimpses of what the characters may be up to. It shows Dolores riding a horse and firing a gun at a group of people who are fleeing on foot
The trailer also shows a grief stricken humanoid Bernard staring at a dead tiger. He appears to be assisting the "Westworld" security in locating hosts in what may be a host-hunting mission. Overall the trailer is light on the details of Season 1 and does not go into much detail about the plot of Season 2.
It appears that the characters will be dealing with the outcome of the massacre in their own ways.
Show runners are remaining tight lipped about the second season
According to Rolling Stone, the second season of the show has only been in production for a few weeks. It was confirmed that "Westworld" will be returning in 2018 but as of yet there is no timeline in place for the series.
