Star Wars Visions Season 3 Hits Disney+: Exact Release Time and Complete Episode Guide

Star Wars: Visions is back next fall with a fresh batch of anime shorts, all dropping at once so you can make a Halloween-week binge of it. It has been a minute since Volume 2 wrapped in May 2023, so yes, the wait has been real.

Release date and where to watch

Volume 3 hits Disney+ on Wednesday, October 29, 2025. All nine episodes arrive the same day. Like past rounds, this is a stand-alone anthology and it lives entirely on Disney+.

Who is making it this time

It is another Japan-led lineup, with shorts from Kamikaze Douga (teaming with ANIMA on one), David Production, TRIGGER, WIT Studio, Production I.G, Polygon Pictures, Kinema Citrus Co., and Project Studio Q. Expect the same genre-hopping vibe the series is known for, just with every studio doing its own flavor of Star Wars.

Stacked voice cast

The new season pulls in a sharp roster: Anna Sawai, Freddie Highmore, George Takei, Harvey Guillen, Jodie Turner-Smith, Judith Light, Simu Liu, Stephanie Hsu, and Steve Buscemi. That is a lot of distinct voices for nine shorts, which should make the anthology feel even more varied.

Episode guide

IMDb now lists titles, studios, and loglines. A few are outright sequels to favorites from earlier volumes, and one of those continuations is already being teed up for a spin-off in 2026.

• The Duel: Payback — Kamikaze Douga + ANIMA, directed by Takanobu Mizuno. Ronin goes up against a warped Jedi called the Grand Master, with help from unlikely allies. Sequel to Volume 1's The Duel, with the original director returning.
• The Song of Four Wings — Polygon Pictures. A princess-turned-rebel shields a child from the Empire on a snowbound world.
• The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope — Production I.G. Kara is on the run from Jedi Hunters and stranded in space until a mysterious droid steps in. Sequel to Volume 1's The Ninth Jedi, and this storyline is slated for its own spin-off in 2026.
• The Bounty Hunters — TRIGGER. A rogue bounty hunter takes a risky job that changes everything for her and her droid partner.
• Yuko's Treasure — David Production, with Shinya Ohira. A sheltered orphan teams up with a streetwise friend to save his droid caregiver and track down a long-lost treasure.
• The Lost Ones — Project Studio Q. F, living under the radar after helping refugees, is forced to confront her past when the Empire closes in.
• The Smuggler — WIT Studio. A desperate smuggler takes a rescue job to pull a fugitive out from under Imperial control.
• The Bird of Paradise — Kamikaze Douga. A Padawan, blinded in battle, undertakes a spiritual journey to overcome the darkness inside.
• Black — David Production, with Shinya Ohira. A trippy, internal-war short set inside the mind of an Imperial trooper, pushing light, dark, life, and death to the breaking point.

What to expect

This volume is leaning into follow-ups: Ronin returns from The Duel, Kara is back from The Ninth Jedi, and F is referenced across The Elder and The Lost Ones. The tonal spread looks wide: heavy action, meditative quests, and at least one full-on psychedelic descent. As always, these are one-off stories that sit outside the main Star Wars canon, which is part of the appeal — the studios can get weird without tripping over continuity.

Star Wars: Visions Vol. 3 lands October 29, 2025, exclusively on Disney+ in the U.S.
