Jujutsu Kaisen is set to return with its highly anticipated third season, titled The Culling Game Part 1, in January 2026, as per Nerds & Beyond. The offering's streaming release on Netflix, however, has not been confirmed yet. Industry trends suggest that season 3 will most likely premiere first on Crunchyroll, the go-to platform for anime simulcasts, with Netflix potentially acquiring the chapter later to add it to its vast collection of manga adaptations.

The announcement of the new season's release was made during a special Jujutsu Kaisen anniversary live stream today featuring the Japanese voice actors Junya Enoki as Yuji Itadori, Yuma Uchida as Megumi Fushiguro, and Asami Seto as Nobara Kugisaki, according to Nerds & Beyond. This new season promises to continue the dark, action-packed saga of curses and sorcery, taking the story into even more dangerous territory and escalating the stakes further. Meanwhile, the theatrical release date of Shibuya Incident was also announced alongside Jujutsu Kaisen 3, offering fans a cinematic way to revisit key storylines before the new season arrives.
