Some fans call it “Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4.” Here’s everything that’s confirmed.

When does Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Part 2 come out?
There’s no official date. Part 2 was announced the same day Part 1’s finale aired (March 26, 2026), and early guesses pointed to fall 2026. Those guesses now look outdated. More recent reports point to January 2027 at the earliest, with some suggesting later in 2027. A recent announcement tied to the Phantom Parade mobile game also said no release date has been set.
Is it Season 3 Part 2 or Season 4?
Both names are in use. The Culling Game is being adapted in two parts. Part 1 aired in winter 2026, and the continuation is officially presented as the second part of the Culling Game. Many fans and outlets call it “Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4,” which is why both searches lead to the same release.
