Netflix’s live-action adaptation of One Piece is one of the streaming service’s biggest hits. Based on Eiichiro Oda’s globally popular manga, the series follows Monkey D. Luffy and his journey to achieve his goal of becoming the Pirate King. Along the way, Luffy brings together the Straw Hat Pirates and sails across the seas in search of the legendary One Piece treasure. After two successful seasons, fans like me are waiting for the next chapter. Here’s what we know so far about One Piece season 3, including its expected release window, story and returning characters.
Netflix has confirmed that One Piece season 3 is scheduled to premiere sometime in 2027. The platform has yet to announce a specific release date. Season 3 will stream exclusively on Netflix.
One Piece season 3 will feature the Alabasta storyline. The upcoming season will place Princess Vivi and the Kingdom of Alabasta at the center of the story.
The official logline reads, a rebellion “threatens to tear the nation apart, fueled in secret by one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the ruthless Sir Crocodile, and his underground syndicate Baroque Works, who seek to conquer Alabasta for themselves.”
The official description further says, “In a season defined by unbreakable bonds and impossible choices, the Straw Hats must face a brewing civil war and a powerful warlord to save Vivi’s kingdom before it crumbles into the sand.”
