Invincible fans just got their biggest update yet on the return of the superhero animated series: we finally have a teaser trailer and an official premiere date, along with confirmation that the next installment won’t have a mid-season break.
The first three episodes of Invincible Season 3 will be released on Prime Video on Thursday, February 6, 2025, with a new episode dropping every week on the same day until March 13, meaning there will be eight more episodes in the season.
This isn’t a complete surprise to fans in the know, as co-showrunner Simon Racioppa previously told Ny Breaking that launching the series in two parts “wasn’t the original plan” for Invincible season 2, so we didn’t expect this to happen again.
What we did expect was that a teaser trailer (see below) would be revealed around the time the release date was revealed, and this turned out to be the case. You can watch the two and a half minute video below.

Even the announcement for the season 3 release date was true Invincible also fashion, with Mark turning to Cecil and asking “when is this all going to start”? Like many of the best superhero films, the series uses self-aware humor as a way to poke fun at its own delays and setbacks.
There’s still no official synopsis for season 3 of the show, but we do know from this short clip that Mark will have to undergo extensive “special training” to prepare for what’s to come.
Considering the next chapter of one of Prime Video’s best shows has been in the works for over three years, you’d think the lead superhero from Robert Kirkman’s comic book series of the same name would be ready for anything, but even he’s surprised by it idea that he should exercise…
