Fantasy anime Record of Ragnarok keeps going strong. The third season, now available on Netflix, has amassed 3.3 million views this week alone, and the show is currently #1 in two countries.
The 15 new episodes make for a quick watch. Thankfully, due a fun plot and devoted fanbase, the series could go on for a while. Question is: will it?
Record of Ragnarok Season 4 Release Date
Netflix hasn’t announced plans for a potential Record of Ragnarok season 4, at least not yet. That doesn’t mean a renewal isn’t happening. The third season premiered not long ago, so the platform might be waiting to assess how it performs before making a decision.
Viewership numbers are strong, and the anime is based on a manga series, so there’s plenty of story available for a follow-up. As long as the streamer gives the green light, a fresh batch of episodes could drop in late 2026.

What Could Happen in Record of Ragnarok Season 4?
In a cosmic council held once every millennium, the gods vote to destroy humanity. That’s when Brunhilde, leader of the valkyries, argues that humans deserve one final chance to prove their worth.
To decide humanity’s fate, she proposes the Ragnarok tournament. In other words, thirteen human champions will fight thirteen gods in one-on-one combat. If humanity wins seven of the thirteen bouts, they earn another thousand years of existence. If the gods win seven, humanity will be wiped out forever.
To give humans a fighting chance, the valkyries fuse their souls with human fighters to forge divine weapons capable of harming gods. What follows are high-stakes, larger-than-life battles that pit legendary human figures against deities.
In season 3, the tournament is at a critical juncture, with each duel pushing the characters beyond their limits. If the show is renewed, Record of Ragnarok season 4 will likely continue in the same vein, while also expanding on the mythology. The manga series is available in English for those keen to explore the source material.
