This coming winter, the fourth and final season of Attack on Titan will return for Part 2.

Fans of Attack on Titan assumed the series would end on Sunday, but there were evidently other plans in the works, as additional episodes were revealed to be arriving in 2022.

Attack on Titan episode 76 (season four episode 17) will premiere in Winter 2022, and while no particular premiere date has been established, it is expected to show on Sunday, January 14, 2022.

Along with confirmation that Attack on Titan will return for a fourth season, it was also revealed that season four element 2 will premiere in Winter 2022.

However, because a more definite release date has yet to be decided, episode 76 will be released in early January as part of the Winter anime schedule.

Attack on Titan episode 76 (season four episode 17) is expected to premiere on Sunday, January 9th, or Sunday, January 16th, 2021, according to early estimates.

The week of January 9th is traditionally the start of the Winter anime season.

The optimal timing, however, is dependent on the number of episodes in season four element 2 – which is currently unclear.
