“Outer Banks” Season 4 has officially been released in its entirety, giving fans the chance to binge the rest of the season after the first batch of episodes were released in October.

The young adult drama has caught on since its debut in 2020, reportedly racking up millions of views.

“There is no world of ‘Outer Banks’ without the people who see it,” Chase Stokes, who plays John B, said in an interview posted by Netflix’s Tudum. “We didn’t want to be here.”

Here’s what we know about the latest season and the future of the beloved Netflix show:

How many seasons does ‘Outer Banks’ have?

“Outer Banks” has four seasons, the first of which aired in 2020.

The young-adult series centered around friendship, action and high-stakes adventure has drawn comparisons to other successful teen dramas, Stokes previously said.

“There’s the same camaraderie that you’ve seen with the ‘Stranger Things’ kids, and we’ve gotten comparisons to ‘Riverdale’ with the mystery, murder, adventure stuff,” Stokes told Refinery29 in 2020. “It’s cool because we’re also breaking new ground. We’re adding a whole other element to the teenage drama.”

Will there be a ‘Outer Banks’ season 5?

Monday, November 4, Netflix announced that the fifth season of “Outer Banks” will be the last for the series.

The creators, Josh Pate, Jonas Pate and Shannon Burke, released a letter to fans about the show’s final chapter.

“Now, with some sadness but also excitement, we put season four behind us and turn to season five, where we hope to bring our beloved Pogues home in the way we envisioned and planned years ago,” the letter, in part , listed. “Season five will be our last, and we think it will be our best yet. We hope you’ll join us for another paddle out for the surf break.”

Stokes also shared the letter on his Instagram, thanking fans for watching the show for five years.

“It will always be Pogues 4 Life,” the actor wrote.

What will season 5’s story be?

In the letter, the creators also opened up about the inspiration for the show, adding that they knew when it would end from the early stages.

“Seven years ago, in the summer of 2017, we came across a photo of teenagers on a beach at dusk during a power outage. The photo sparked an idea for a story about four best friends who just want to have fun all the while,” said the creators. “From this beginning, we envisioned a mystery that would lead to a five-season journey of adventure, treasure hunting, and friendship.”

Burke Netflix said that the treasure hunt in season 4 “was going to take us all the way to the end.”

Is there a release date for season 5?

It is unclear when season 5 will be released.
