'Attack on Titan' season 4: Release date, cast, creator and everything else you need to know about the hit anime's final run

Season 3 of the anime series made some striking revelations about the history of the world and the true nature of its inhabitants which are bound to cause trouble in the fourth and final season.

'Attack on Titan' dropped a huge bomb in the third season that turned everything we know about the Titans on its head. The revelation that the Titans are actually transformed humans is bound to have widespread repercussions in the fourth and final season.

Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming season of the hit anime:

Release date

'Attack on Titan' season 4 will air on NHK, Japan's national public broadcaster, in the fall of 2020. The English-language release on streaming services like Hulu, Funimation, and Crunchyroll is expected to come a little after the Japanese release but should still become available before the end of 2020.

Plot

No details have been released about the final season as of now. The finale of the last season took a quick time jump, introducing an older and more experienced Eren. The last episode also revealed the ancient rivalry between Eldia, Eren’s homeland and Marley. Eren (and viewers) now know that Marley has been forcibly transforming Eldians into Titans and unleashing them on Paradis Island, thus causing the deaths of thousands including Eren’s mother. So it’s only fair to assume that the last season will see Eren and his friends take the fight across the sea to Marley.
