The popular Netflix series Alice in Borderland has made a spectacular return. The third season currently occupies the top spot on the platform’s global top 10 for non-English shows, with 7 million views this week.
Additionally, the previous two seasons have also made the charts, proving that the show’s fanbase is growing. Whether that means more episodes are on the way, it remains to be seen.
Alice in Borderland Season 4 Release Date
At the time of writing, Netflix hasn’t officially renewed the series. While audience numbers are good, the platform sometimes waits a bit to assess them before making an announcement either way.
Based on the show’s release schedule so far, a potential Alice in Borderland season 4 could arrive sometime in 2027.

What Could Happen in Alice in Borderland Season 4?
The Japanese survival thriller follows Arisu, a young man disillusioned with his life, and his friends, who suddenly find themselves transported to a deserted, alternate version of Tokyo called the “Borderland.”
Once there, players are forced into deadly, playing-card–themed games where losing means death. Each challenge grows more brutal, pushing Arisu and his entourage to their limits. Turns out, they’re fighting not just to stay alive, but to hold onto their memories and sense of self.
Season 3 picks up with Arisu and Usagi living in the real world, married. However, their peace shatters when Usagi disappears under mysterious circumstances involving a professor named Ryuji, who is obsessed with death/afterlife studies. Desperate to find her, Arisu re-enters the “in-between” dimension, and chaos ensues.
We’re not giving away any spoilers, but the third season ends on a pretty final note. While we’re sure the creators can find a way to continue the story, fans get closure before the end credits roll.
Alice in Borderland season 4 could focus on a new cast of characters. An American spin-off might also be in the works. We’ll have to be patient until Netflix decides to spill the beans.
