The good news here is that we are getting seasons 4 and 5 upcoming soon!
Now, there has been a long delay for the season or the official release date. The first season premiered on January 10, 2022, and the second season came out in May 2024. So, considering this huge gap, hopefully, we can consider that season 3 will be released by December 2025. (We might have to wait a bit longer )
It is wondering that, out of nowhere, when season 3 is still not here or has not confirmed its release date, how Adult Swim has announced the next two seasons?
Maybe to cover up for the delay? Well, they have announced season 3 in June 2024, and still, fans are patiently waiting!

Anyway, whatever the reason might be, we are now sure that we have 2 more seasons to be ready for.
Animated shows tend to have a pretty long production cycle these days, so all we can do is wait for season 3.
When Will Smiling Friends Season 4&5 Release?
With just a simple hint for season 4 and 5, Adult Swim has created a huge excitement among fans.

Now that we still don’t have a final date for season 3 release, I guess we will have to keep waiting for the release dates of its further chapters.
If Season 4 is a continuation of Season 3, then there is a chance that the creators will announce the release date for Season 4 shortly after Season 3 premieres.
Since that network has announced the future seasons this early, this might mean the creators are ready with the production for these seasons. So, it is currently a mystery when these seasons will be released.
We continuously update our pages with the latest news and inside gossip. So, stay tuned for the upcoming updates for Smiling Friends.
