The treasure hunt is far from finished as Outer Banks season 4 returns fans to Poguelandia for an exhilarating new adventure. Developed by Josh Pate, Jonas Pate, and Shannon Burke, Outer Banks made its debut on Netflix on April 15, 2020. It was during the release of the second season on July 30, 2021, that the series climbed to the top of the Nielsen U.S. streaming charts, achieving the #1 spot.
Combined viewership of both seasons led to an impressive total of 2.1 billion viewing minutes across its 20 episodes in the first week of August 2021, followed by another 1.16 billion minutes in the subsequent week. This remarkable achievement prompted a green light for a third season, which premiered on February 23, 2023.
In contrast to its predecessors, the third season received a mixed-to-average rating of 53% on Rotten Tomatoes, falling short of expectations. As the story of the Pogues progresses, anticipation builds for Outer Banks season 4, which promises to dive into deep oceans in search of historical treasures.
When will Outer Banks season 4 be released?
Outer Banks season 4 is set to premiere on October 10, 2024. There’s an exciting twist, however: this fourth chapter will be released in two parts.
The first part, featuring five episodes, launches on October 10, while the second part will follow on November 7, 2024, with the remaining five episodes. Despite the split release, this season will maintain the same total episode count.
Netflix has yet to comment on the split release format, but the first part may leave viewers with a significant cliffhanger, heightening anticipation for part 2.
Outer Banks season 4 was officially confirmed on February 18, 2023, just five days before the third season’s premiere. The showrunners expressed their excitement, stating:
“Seeing Poguelandia come to life was nothing short of spectacular. The Pogues are enjoying an adventure of a lifetime, and we now get to map out more twists and turns as the joyride continues into season four of Outer Banks. Thank you to Netflix, our cast, and the amazing fans who helped to make this happen.”
Following a teaser that excited the OBX fandom, an official trailer was released, providing a sneak peek of what’s ahead for the Pogues. Additionally, Netflix is set to launch a video game titled Netflix Stories: Outer Banks, scheduled for release on October 29, 2024.
