Updated on Nov. 9, 2026 in Science Fiction
Prime Video will release all eight episodes of Blade Runner 2099 on November 25, 2026, rather than weekly. The limited series, created by Silka Luisa, is set in a reborn Los Angeles years after replicants won an uprising.
Why it matters
The release marks a new entry in the Blade Runner franchise, which began with Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and continued through the 1982 film and Blade Runner 2049. Ridley Scott is serving as executive producer, linking the series to the franchise's original creative lineage.
All eight episodes release simultaneously on November 25, 2026, which is 17 days from the date of this report. No viewership or commercial performance data is available yet, as the series has not premiered.
