Cobra Kai fans, Netflix is really making you suffer in order to enjoy the sixth and final season of the show. Because not only are the episodes not being released all at once, but instead in three parts, spread over a period of more than six months. AGH. So when can you expect the next episodes of Cobra Kai?
The final season picks up with Cobra Kai eliminated from the Valley, with both senseis and students having to decide if and how they will compete in the Sekai Taikai — the world championships of karate.
Following season five, the Sekai Taikai is also looming over the horizon, and John Kreese is back in play after faking his death and escaping from prison. The first part of season six dropped on Netflix on 18th July, but when will the next episodes be available?
Cobra Kai season 6 schedule
Each part of Cobra Kai season six contains five episodes, and is being split up into three parts:
- Cobra Kai season 6 part 1, episodes 1 – 5, 18th July 2024 (8am UK time, 3am ET, 12am PT)
- Cobra Kai season 6 part 2, episodes 6 – 10, 15th November 2024 (8am UK time, 3am ET, 12am PT)
- Cobra Kai season 6 part 3, episodes 11 – 15, sometime in 2025 (TBC on timings, but we image 8am UK time, 3am ET, 12am PT)
Yep, we’re going to have to wait at least six months for the conclusion of the series – and Netflix haven’t even confirmed a set date for the final five episodes. Damn!
Speaking about their decision to split the series into three parts, Cobra Kai’s creator Hayden Schlossberg told Today, “15 episodes felt like the perfect number, in terms of the real estate of space, to tell the final chapter. [But] it’s tough to binge all that in one sitting.”
You know, we think we’d manage it.
