Fans of Dragon Prince had to wait three years for the fourth season after the third season was released in November 2019. Thankfully, we don’t have to wait another two years for Season 5. Amidst many concerns about the expected release date, Netflix has announced that The Dragon Prince: Season 5 will be released in July. The exact date of release has not been officially confirmed. Anyway, with the launch in mind he can plan his July watchlist.
For those new to the Dragon Prince series, let me explain what this is all about. The stage of the story is the fictional world “Zadia”. The story follows the journey of two human princes, Ezran and Callum, and their elf friend Layla. Their mission is to prevent war between the human kingdom and the magical world. The series debuted on his Netflix in September 2018. Here’s what has been published so far:
- Book 1: Moon (2018) – September 14, 2018
- Book 2: Sky (2019) – February 15, 2019
- Book 3: Date (2019) – November 22, 2019
- Book 4: Earth (2022) – November 3, 2022
The as-yet-unnamed fifth season is highly anticipated by fans, as many questions were left unanswered in its predecessor. Whether Arlavos will be released from prison, whether Callum will allow Layla to leave prison, or whether Arlavos will retain control of Callum, all these questions are plaguing fans. Season 5 should give us some answers.
