This is a live-update article and it will be updated as new details about The King's Avatar Season 3 is released. This is what we know so far.
The King's Avatar (Quánzhí Gāoshǒu) is among the most anticipated Chinese anime releases. The anime series depicts a fictional esports scene in China and follows Ye Xiu, a professional esports player considered to be the best player in the video game Glory. He was forced to resign from his team (Excellent Era) despite his professional track record. But the odds are on Ye Xiu's side, and soon enough, he finds himself back to the Glory championship after building a new character from scratch. The King's Avatar finished airing its last season 2 episode three years ago, and the anime fans are already asking if season 3 is going to happen. Here's everything we know so far.
Yes, The King's Avatar season 3 is officially happening! After months of waiting, Colored-Pencil Animation Design, the studio behind the Chinese anime, finally released a key visual announcing the return of the donghua for a third season. There is also a Chinese teaser trailer which you can see here or at the bottom of this article.
The King's Avatar Season 3 was scheduled to be released on WeTV in the fall of 2023. We are now in March 2024 and we have yet to hear anything about the new season. No specific date has yet to be announced. But we will continue to monitor for any new developments.
Season 1 premiered in 2017, followed by the OVA that was released in 2018, and then finally season 2 dropped in 2020.
We are expecting the characters from Team Happy to return for season 3. They are Ye Xiu (formerly from Team Excellent Era, also known as Lord Grim), Tang Rou (Soft Mist), Mo Fan (Deception), An Wenyi (Little Cold Hands), Qiao Yifan (One Inch Ash), and Wei Chen (Warlock). Su Mucheng (Dancing Rain) will be joining Team Happy for Season 10 Championship, so we are expecting to see her character again for the next season.
Warning: Season 2 spoilers are ahead!
The King's Avatar is based on the light novel of the same name written by Hu Dielan. In season 2, Team Happy, led by Ye Xiu, finally managed to enter Glory Professional Alliance in Season 10, which means that they are about to face the biggest battle of their lives. For season 3, we are expecting to see a continuation of Team Happy's competitive journey in the fictional Esports arena. Whether they will win the championship trophy or not, we will have to wait for season 3 to find out.
The official trailer for The King's Avatar Season 3 is finally here! Check out the video posted below. Go to Tencent's official YouTube channel to watch the complete episodes online for free, or you may also watch the live-action version on Netflix.
