Re:ZERO Season 4 Release Tracker
This is a living Re:ZERO Season 4 release tracker, updated as news drops: current status, the full announcement timeline, what the season will cover, English dub info and where to watch when it airs. Everything is sourced from official announcements and checked against two independent outlets — last verified June 12, 2026.

Our honest read: Cour 1 finale airs June 17, 2026 (episode 11), followed by an ~8-week break. Cour 2 (episodes 12-19) is officially dated August 12, 2026 and should conclude around September 30, 2026. Given the franchise's momentum, expect Season 5 talk after the finale — nothing announced yet.

📖 What it will cover
Season 4 adapts light novel Arc 6, the Pleiades Watchtower arc (roughly volumes 20-25): Subaru, Emilia, Beatrice, Julius and Anastasia's camp cross the Augria sand dunes to reach the Sage's tower and find a way to undo what the Sin Archbishops of Gluttony and Lust did — above all to wake Rem from her coma and restore Julius's eaten name. One of the most hyped arcs in the novels: psychological horror, the Corridor of Memories, major Witch of Envy lore, and Rem's story finally moving forward.
🔚 Where Season 3 ended
Season 3 (16 episodes, two cours: 'Conflict' Oct 2024 and 'Counterattack' Feb-Mar 2025) adapted Arc 5, the Battle of Priestella. It ended with the city liberated but at a cost: Rem still in her unending sleep and Julius's name devoured by Gluttony — setting up the journey to the Pleiades Watchtower. New to the series? See our Re:ZERO watch order for the full path including the OVAs.
Keep reading: Season 4 covers through roughly LN volume 25, so to read ahead continue from volume 26 (start of Arc 7, the Vollachia saga — already fully written). The original web novel is free and years ahead of the anime; Yen Press publishes the English light novels.
🎙️ English dub
Crunchyroll confirmed a same-day English dub launching with the April 8 premiere — no delay versus the Japanese broadcast. English dub directed by Chris Hackney with the core cast returning; new episodes drop subbed and dubbed every Wednesday.
