BLUE LOCK has announced that the anime will return for a third season, currently in production, featuring the Neo Egoist League arc. It was also revealed that BLUE LOCK will be adapted into a live-action film, set for a nationwide release in Japan during Summer 2026 to coincide with the World Cup. Both announcements were made at BLUELOCK EGOIST FESTA 2025, following the success of the anime’s second season and the film BLUE LOCK THE MOVIE -EPISODE NAGI-.
The creators of the series expressed their excitement about the Season 3 announcement, sharing the news with fans. Muneyuki Kaneshiro, the original story's creator, congratulated the entire production team on their achievement.
“Season 3 is officially confirmed!!! We did it… Huge thanks to the entire Egoist production team…! This marks a brand-new beginning for Isagi and for us as well! We’ll be creating this with full ego, eyes spinning, and tongues out, so get on your knees and wait for it!”
Yusuke Nomura, the illustrator of the BLUE LOCK manga, shared his thoughts on the upcoming international players.
“It’s finally been announced! A brand-new anime series!! We’re finally bringing the Neo Egoist League to life on screen. The eccentric international players—who are even more intense than the Blue Lock team—are coming. Please wait for it!”
Alongside the anime, it was announced that BLUE LOCK will be adapted into a live-action film for the first time. The film will be produced by CREDEUS, the studio behind the Kingdom and Golden Kamuy films, as well as Kokuhou, Japan’s second-highest-grossing live-action movie ever. The series had previously been adapted into several stage plays. CK WORKS will handle executive production, while Toho will manage film distribution.
More updates on BLUE LOCK Season 3 and the live-action film will be available on the official series website and X (formerly Twitter). BLUE LOCK is also available to watch on Crunchyroll.
