Hazbin Hotel Creator Hints at the Release Timeline for Seasons 3 and 4
With Season 2 wrapped, Hazbin Hotel creator Vivienne Medrano finally spells out when Seasons 3 and 4 are coming, detailing where production stands, why the waits differ, and offering the first clear tease of their release windows.
Hazbin Hotel just wrapped Season 2, and creator Vivienne Medrano finally laid out where Seasons 3 and 4 are headed. Short version: yes, more is coming, and there is an actual plan. Also, she cleared up a couple story rules and confirmed a fan-favorite character is not just a tease.
So, when are Seasons 3 and 4 coming?
In a Collider interview, Medrano said the team is deep into production, but the timeline is still the timeline. Animation takes forever. The key bit from her:
"We are definitely well into it, but animation takes a long time. I would say a similar wait for Season 3... but less of a wait for Season 4 because they were greenlit together."
That lines up with how the show has rolled out so far: Season 1 finished on February 2, 2024, and Season 2 premiered on October 29, 2025. If Season 3 follows a similar gap, you are looking at roughly 2027. Season 4 should land sooner after that because Seasons 3 and 4 were approved at the same time. Not exciting, but it makes sense: once a studio greenlights two seasons together, the pipeline speeds up.
- Season 1 finale: February 2, 2024
- Season 2 premiere: October 29, 2025
- Season 3: targeted around 2027 (similar wait as S1 to S2)
- Season 4: expected faster than the S2-to-S3 gap (greenlit alongside S3)
A quick rule about deals in Hell (because this confused people)
Medrano spelled out how deals work in Hazbin Hotel: you have to literally see both sides shake on it for the deal to count. No handshake, no deal. That is why Lute barking an order in Season 2 did not stick, and why Sera shut it down. If you are wondering why a seemingly big command carried zero weight, that is the reason. The show is strict about this rule: the handshake is the binding moment.
About Lilith: was that really her?
Yes. The finale phone call was actually Lilith. Medrano admitted that the original Season 1 tease was partly hedging because they did not know what they would get at the time. Now that Season 2 is over and she was not really in it, Medrano says Lilith shows up in Season 3. Promise made on the record.
What Season 3 is actually about
Expect Season 3 to pivot hard into family. Medrano said that guess is a safe one, with the Morningstars front and center, Angel in the spotlight, and a lot of found-family threads tying it all together. We will also get more of Angel's history, which should answer a few lingering questions and probably start a few new fights online.
Bottom line: the show is moving, the wait for Season 3 will be familiar, Season 4 should hit faster, the handshake rule is real, and Lilith is finally stepping out of the shadows. See you in Hell, eventually.
