What is the Ragnarok season 3 release date? Among the treasure trove of the great Netflix entertainment out there is Ragnarok, a show based on Norse myths currently gearing up for its third season.
Netflix has confirmed that a new season of the TV series was given the greenlight, but also shared the sad news that this would be the third and final season of the hit show. Well, don’t be too down. We’ve got all the details you need relating to the Ragnarok season 3 release date, plot details, casting announcements, and more.
The Netflix series first premiered in 2020 and is a modern-day reimagining of Norse mythology, set in the fictional Norwegian town of Edda, a town suffering at the hands of climate change and industrial pollution. The teenage protagonist, Magne (David Stakston), challenges those responsible for the crisis facing the town, and his mission is helped by the fact that he is the reincarnation of Thor (no, it’s not linked to the MCU).
Ragnarok season 3 release date speculation
As of March 2023, we don’t know the Ragnarok season 3 release date. That said, we think it will land at some point in the second half of 2022. Historically, season 1 hit Netflix on January 31, 2020, and season 2 arrived on May 27, 2021, which indicates a yearly release.

Each season of Ragnarok is fairly short too, at just six episodes apiece, which means the production isn’t quite as heavy as shows which have bigger seasons. If they move quickly, we should see Ragnarok come to an end this year.
Ragnarok season 3 trailer speculation
Unfortunately, there is no Ragnarok season 3 trailer just yet. With production ongoing, and no news of the shoot wrapping up at the moment, we may have to wait a while for a trailer.
But, if our assumption of a late 2022 release date is on the money, then a trailer will more than likely drop in the next couple of months.
Ragnarok season 3 plot speculation
We don’t know for certain, but the Ragnarok season 3 plot will likely bring us closer to the incredible battle of the gods.
The lines between good and evil have certainly blurred in season 2 of Ragnarok, with Laurits dabbling in the dark side (which makes sense, given he is the modern version of Loki, god of mischief). Similarly, Saxa seemingly pledged her allegiance to Magne instead of the Jutul, after a change of heart in the season 2 finale.

That finale saw Laurits, having felt betrayed by Magne, unleash the Jörmungandr, which is essentially a Thor-killing world serpent. With the evil Jutul family, Laurits, and now his deadly new pet to contend with, Magne will certainly have his hands full in season 3.
Luckily, he will have the help of a whole host of fellow gods that we were introduced to in season 2, and there could well be more to come if Norse mythology is anything to go by.
Ragnarok season 3 cast speculation
The Ragnarok season 3 cast will bring back Magne and his half-brother Laurits (Jonas Strand Gravli)to finish their story.
We also expect the new allies Magne found in season 2 to return for more action, with the gods Iman (Danu Sunth), Wotan (Bjørn Sundquist), and Harry (Benjamin Helstad) all likely to join the big fight. And, it seems they will be joined by Saxa (Theresa Frostad Eggesbø), who sided with Magne in the season 2 finale.

And, of course, it wouldn’t be Ragnarok without the villainous Jutul family. The apocalyptic giants will be without their leader, Vidar (Gísli Örn Garðarsson), who met an untimely end in season 2. But, Fjor (Herman Tømmeraas) and Ran (Synnøve Macody Lund) have enough evil in their bones to make up for that.
It remains to be seen what new characters will be introduced in the third and final season of Ragnarok, but given the vast lore of Norse mythology, we’re sure there are a few more gods waiting to make themselves known.
That’s everything we know about Ragnarok season 3 at this stage, but we expect the updates to come in thick and fast through the rest of 2022, so we will keep you in the loop. In the meantime, why not get up to speed with more teen drama in our Euphoria season 3 release date guide.
