Stranger Things season 5 is one of the most anticipated Netflix shows. The fact that this will be the finale just ups the excitement around it. While makers and the OTT platform are mum about the release date, that it will premiere this year only is a confirmed update. For now, we know Stranger Things season 5 will hit Netflix in November 2025, even though the exact date has not been revealed.

Stranger Things Season 5 To Release Three Years After Season 4

Stranger Things season 5, if it releases in 2025, will come three years after the fourth season aired on Netflix. So, for viewers of this hit sci-fi series, it is a long, painful wait. However, they are used to this pattern as season 4 also came out three years after the previous edition.

Still, anxious fans took to social media to express whether Stranger Things season 5 will be worth the wait. While some cited how Squid Game season 2, despite the delay, was Netflix's biggest debut ever, many were apprehensive about Stranger Things season 5.

Noted for its characters, nostalgic quotient, and storyline, Stranger Things has been a smasher for Netflix. Backed by the Duffer brothers, Shawn Levy, and Dan Cohen, the TV series is known for its mix of drama, horror, science fiction, mystery, and coming-of-age elements.
