Netflix’s highly anticipated series, Stranger Things 5, has been making headlines for weeks, especially after rumours of a leaked release date surfaced last week. The sci-fi series is expected to premiere in 2025, with a tentative date of November 27, aligning with the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., making it a perfect holiday binge for viewers.
New reports suggest that Netflix plans to split the final season into two parts to maximize its impact. Here is what we know more about the series.

Update On The Series
According to the new report by What’s On Netflix, similar to Stranger Things Season 4, the upcoming season will be split into two parts, with the first half streaming in October 2025 and the second concluding in November 2025. This decision allows Netflix to extend the show’s impact over several months, building anticipation and keeping audiences engaged for an extended period.

Netflix frequently uses this strategy with its significant shows, including Bridgerton, The Witcher, Emily in Paris, and The Lincoln Lawyer. The final season of Cobra Kai was even split into three parts. While this approach has proven successful for some series, the streamer has reverted to its original binge-release model in other cases.
About Stranger Things 5
Stranger Things Season 5 consists of eight episodes, most nearly feature-length as the series concludes. Filming wrapped in December 2024 after an extensive 11-month shoot, and the show now requires significant post-production work to finalize the episodes. Additionally, dubbing in multiple international languages for Netflix’s global audience will take extra time.
Meanwhile, Netflix is gearing up for a massive year, with the premieres of Squid Game Season 3 and Wednesday Season 2 also on the horizon. With all three of its biggest shows set to release in 2025, the streaming giant is carefully strategizing their launch dates to maximize impact.
