Prime Video has officially renewed the animated series Invincible for a sixth season, confirming the news ahead of the upcoming fifth season's release. This renewal makes Invincible Prime Video's longest-running original animated series, with creator Robert Kirkman expressing enthusiasm for the show's continued future.
Kirkman stated that he is eager to see what lies ahead for the series, hinting at significant story potential for seasons to come. "One of the biggest rewards of building Invincible over the years has been witnessing how new audiences continue to connect with these characters and this world, almost 25 years after its creation," he said in a statement. He also credited the series' success to its dedicated fanbase and the talented teams behind its production, including supervising directors Shaun O’Neill and Dan Duncan, who will now serve as executive producers.
Details regarding the plot or release window for Season 6 remain scarce, likely to avoid spoilers for Season 5, which is currently slated for release in 2027. The early renewal for Season 6 is seen as a strategic move by Prime Video and Skybound to maintain a consistent release schedule. The significant two-and-a-half-year gap between the first and second seasons of Invincible led to considerable fan frustration. By securing renewals well in advance, the aim appears to be preventing similar lengthy breaks in future seasons. Season 5 itself was announced in summer 2025, allowing the production team two years to develop it. Based on past release patterns, Season 6 might not arrive until 2028, though an official release window has not yet been provided by Prime Video.
The series has garnered critical acclaim, with Season 4 receiving an 8/10 review, which described it as the show's "biggest entry to date and its most intimate."
