A teaser trailer and teaser visual for Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 4 have been released, revealing a glimpse of Subaru and co’s desert adventure and the dangers — like a giant worm — they have to face.
The new season will premiere in 2026, and Crunchyroll has confirmed its acquisition.
Re:ZERO‘s fourth season was announced in March, after the end of the split cour third season. The general premise sees Subaru and his friends heading towards to the Pleiades Watchtower to seek the Sage Shaula, hoping to reverse the effects of the Sin Archbishop of Gluttony’s power on its many victims. But to get there, they will have to first negotiate the dangerous Auguria Dunes, which even Reinhard could not conquer.
The anime is based on the MF Bunko J isekai light novel series written by Tappei Nagatsuki and illustrated by Shinichiro Otsuka, the first volume of which Yen Press describes as:
Subaru Natsuki was just trying to get to the convenience store but wound up summoned to another world. He encounters the usual things–life-threatening situations, silver haired beauties, cat fairies–you know, normal stuff. All that would be bad enough, but he’s also gained the most inconvenient magical ability of all–time travel, but he’s got to die to use it. How do you repay someone who saved your life when all you can do is die?
The Re:ZERO light novel series began in 2014 and has 41 main volumes as of June 2025. The story began as a Shousetsuka ni Narou web novel.
