The Duffer Brothers have already announced that the fantasy horror series will conclude with its already renewed fifth season prior to the release of season four. Although we know that a season five is in the works, there is no exact release date as of yet. For now, we can only speculate on the information we've already been given.

According to The Duffer Brothers, we can expect a time jump for our cast in season five, but the wait will be much shorter than the one for season four, which nearly took three years. This is due to the extended runtime of the episodes, but mainly because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, If we're lucky, the wait for season five could potentially be next year, similar to the break between seasons one and two. If not, season five will definitely be released in 2024.
