Solo Leveling season 3 plot, release timeline and what we know so far
There’s speculation that Solo Leveling season 3 might arrive in early 2026 release, possibly around January.
Season 3 is expected to begin with the Recruitment arc.
As of now, Solo Leveling season 3 has not been officially confirmed by A-1 Pictures.
After captivating anime fans worldwide with its animation, intense battles, and interesting storyline, Solo Leveling has carved out a place for itself as one of the most successful manhwa-to-anime adaptations ever. With two action-packed seasons, fans are now waiting for the next chapter in Sung Jinwoo’s journey.
SurveySo, what lies ahead for the S-Rank hunter? Will he face even more dangerous enemies than before? And perhaps the biggest question of all: when will Solo Leveling season 3 be released? Let’s break down everything we know so far.
Solo Leveling season 3 release timeline (Expected)
As of now, A-1 Pictures hasn’t officially greenlit a third season of Solo Leveling. But if we look at the release pattern so far—season 1 airing in January 2024 and season 2 following in January 2025—it’s quite possible that season 3 could arrive in early 2026, most likely around January.
Of course, this is purely speculation. The studio’s future plans could shift, especially if they decide to explore a theatrical film route before continuing the series. This wouldn’t be too surprising, considering similar moves made by other big titles like Demon Slayer, Attack on Titan, and Jujutsu Kaisen.
