The Dragon Prince season 7: Release date, cast and latest news
The final season is on its way.
It's been less than a month since the sixth season of The Dragon Prince was released on Netflix, but already we've got some major news about the upcoming seventh season.
The release date has now been unveiled for season 7, which will be the final run of the hit animated series, which has been subtitled Mystery of Aaravos since its fourth season.
The show first debuted in 2018, and has since then developed a passionate fanbase. But when will the fans get to watch the final episodes and who from the cast will be back?
Read on for everything you need to know about The Dragon Prince season 7.
Will there be The Dragon Prince season 7?
There will! In fact, back in 2020, the show was given a whopping four-season renewal, taking it from season 3 at the time through to season 7.
It was confirmed at the time that the show would come to an end after that deal, making the upcoming seventh season also the show's final run.
In an update in 2022, creators Aaron Ehasz and Justin Richmond hinted that the characters and the world of Xadia could live on beyond the show, but were certain that season 7 would bring the specific story they were telling to an end.
Ehasz told ScreenRant: "Stories are complicated things. The Dragon Prince saga has a very specific endpoint at [season] 7. But also, we have a big story in our brains."
Richmond added that, "The world of Xadia will live no matter what. But, yes, there's a definitive story," while Ehasz confirmed that, "The Dragon Prince saga goes to the end of season 7."
