The 2015 Argentine Primera B Nacional season was the 30° season of Argentine second division, with a total of 22 competing teams. It began 14 February and ended 14 November 2015. Although there was some use of a different name earlier in the year, the AFA has consistently used the Primera B Nacional moniker in releases of late.
The league's format has changed from last season. This year there will be twenty-two teams which will play each other twice for a total of forty-two matches.
In November 2014, the AFA announced two teams from this season will be promoted to the Primera División. It was later reported that the champion will be promoted directly and positions 2-5 will compete in the "Torneo Reducido" for the second place after the regular season. At the end of the season, four teams will be relegated.

Matches were played between 19 November – 5 December.
