Jujutsu Kaisen Season 4 Officially Announced: The Culling Game Part 2 Is Coming – Here’s Everything We Know So Far
The curses never sleep — and neither does the hype. Just hours after the emotional and action-packed finale of Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 aired on March 26, 2026, the official anime account dropped the news every fan was waiting for: Season 4 is officially in production!
Titled “The Culling Game Part 2”, the next chapter promises to crank the chaos even higher as Yuji Itadori, Yuta Okkotsu, and the rest of the Jujutsu sorcerers dive deeper into Kenjaku’s deadly battle royale.
What Happened in Season 3?
Season 3 picked up after the devastating Shibuya Incident and moved into the Culling Game Arc (often called Part 1). We saw high-stakes colony battles, the introduction of powerful new players, and Yuta Okkotsu absolutely dominating in Sendai Colony. The extended finale left fans on the edge of their seats, with the game far from over and major questions still hanging — like the fate of certain characters and the larger conspiracy at play.
The announcement post thanked fans for watching and simply stated: “The Culling Game continues. The story moves to Season 4, ‘The Culling Game Part 2.’ Stay tuned for more updates.”
What to Expect in Season 4
Without diving into major manga spoilers, Season 4 will expand the deadly tournament across more colonies in Japan. Expect:
Even bigger, more creative cursed technique battles
Spotlight moments for supporting characters and new sorcerers
Escalating tension as the rules of the game grow more dangerous
Deeper exploration of themes like survival, sacrifice, and the cost of power
Yuji and Megumi may step back slightly while others shine, but their arcs remain central to the bigger picture. Fans of intense hand-to-hand combat mixed with strategic cursed energy fights are in for a treat — MAPPA’s animation has been consistently stunning, and the bar keeps rising.
Release Date & Where to Watch
There’s no confirmed premiere date yet. Given MAPPA’s workload and current Japanese broadcast schedules, the earliest realistic window is early 2027. Keep an eye on these upcoming events for fresh info:

When it does drop, you’ll be able to stream it on Crunchyroll with simulcast episodes, just like Seasons 1–3.
Why This Announcement Matters
Jujutsu Kaisen has become one of the biggest modern shonen anime for good reason — its perfect blend of dark storytelling, unforgettable characters, and jaw-dropping animation. The fact that MAPPA greenlit Season 4 so quickly after Season 3’s finale shows how committed they are to delivering the full story with the quality fans deserve.
The Culling Game Arc is widely considered one of the most thrilling (and brutal) parts of the series, so the wait, while painful, will be worth it.
