You might not have to wait that long if you've been preparing your hunter equipment for Solo Leveling Season 3. Perhaps sooner than anticipated, the worldwide anime sensation that transformed Sung Jinwoo from the weakest hunter in the world into an unstoppable single warrior may be making a comeback.

A ray of hope has appeared, courtesy of producer Sota Furuhashi, although many had prepared for a delay that would last well into 2028. Furuhashi gave fans something to look forward to by suggesting a potential release during the 2026 Winter Olympics during a recent Reddit Q&A session. According to CBR, he stated, "If it were up to me, I'd say let's wait until the next Olympics to see what's going to happen with Season 3. But that's more up to Kaneko and A-1 Pictures."

If this proves to be true, fans may see Jinwoo return to the screen just two years after Season 2, maintaining the rhythm of the previous seasons. And that's enough of a reason to start preparing your playlist for dungeon clearing.

The Ascension of Solo Leveling

It's fair to say that Solo Leveling has become a phenomenon. The anime, which is based on a well-known South Korean web novel, follows Jinwoo as he acquires the uncommon talent to level up in a world where no one else can. With only that one unexpected turn, the narrative became an enthralling tale of treachery, might, magnificent warfare, and amazing animation.

Fans in the US and UK praised the show's dark tone, quick storytelling, and stunning visual effects as it skyrocketed to fame. Both seasons are now available to stream on Crunchyroll.

But such high quality comes with an overwhelming amount of work. Furahashi disclosed the extent of the effort. More than 220,000 animated frames were used throughout two seasons. Given the circumstances, it's understandable that fans anticipated a long wait before the following chapter.

Although there is no official release date for Solo Leveling Season 3,

So, what's the conclusion? Is Season 3 truly set to premiere in 2026? As of right now, there is no formal confirmation. No teaser. No date. No trailer. The team appears to be trying to bring it back sooner rather than later, based on the producer's comments.

Nonetheless, the final say belongs to producer Kaneko and A-1 Pictures. Furuhashi may have left a breadcrumb, but the studio must officially announce it to the public.

Until then, it doesn't seem like a horrible idea to rewatch Seasons 1 and 2 on Crunchyroll. In any case, the show's intense action sequences and thorough character development merit a second viewing.
