All the major announcements from Netflix’s TUDUM

‘Stranger Things’ release date confirmed

While we knew that the fifth and final season of “Stranger Things” would be coming at some point in 2025, but we weren’t sure exactly when. Now, the release date has been officially unveiled; Volume 1 of Season 5 will be available to stream starting on Nov. 26 at 8 p.m. ET, with Volume 2 coming on Christmas Day at the same time, and The Finale dropping on New Year’s Eve.

New ‘Squid Game’ trailer

Fans of “Squid Game” were a bit surprised to learn that the third and final season of the show would be released this summer, only months after the conclusion of Season 2. Netflix unveiled what is likely to be the final trailer for “Squid Game” Season 3 at TUDUM, as the show returns with its last batch of episodes on June 27.
