Part 1 of Cobra Kai‘s final season will hit Netflix on July 18th. The wait for Part 2 will be a lengthy one, as the second round of episodes will be released a few months later, on November 28th. Part 3, the third and final batch of episodes in Cobra Kai Season 6, is arriving at some point in 2025. Unfortunately, Netflix hasn’t announced a specific date for those episodes just yet.
Season 6 picks up after the events of Season 5, and sees the Cobra Kai students embark on a journey to compete in the karate world championships, where they will face their toughest opponents yet. Here’s Netflix’s official description of Cobra Kai Season 6:
“Picking up with Cobra Kai eliminated from the Valley, our senseis and students must decide if and how they will compete in the Sekai Taikai — the world championships of karate.”
One of the biggest questions surrounding the final season of Cobra Kai is whether or not Hilary Swank will have a role at some point. Many of the lead actors from the various Karate Kid movies have appeared on the show at one point or another, but The Next Karate Kid‘s Swank has yet to show up. While speaking to , the actress didn’t offer fans too much hope about her potential Karate Kid return.
“I don’t think I am, unfortunately,” Swank said. “I know. It’s, like, the number one question I get right now. Most people usually say, ‘What’s it like working with Clint Eastwood?’ But I think, ‘Are you going to be on Cobra Kai has almost surpassed that?’”
