The town of Hawkins is now quarantined, which is government-speak for ‘we have absolutely no idea what we’re doing, so let’s put soldiers everywhere and hope for the best.’ In Stranger Things Season 5, the final season of Netflix’s mega-hit series, Hawkins feels less like “small-town America” and more like a government-controlled demonic petri dish. Season 5 starts with the military poking the Upside Down like it’s an exciting new yogurt flavor.
Everything feels more serious now mainly because Stranger Things Volume 1 dropped the bomb that Will might share Vecna’s creepy mental connection. And yes, Netflix is doing that annoying split-release thing again, meaning the last few episodes of the Stranger Things final season are still locked away.
When Is Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 2 Coming Out?
Rather than dropping the whole season at once like a normal streaming service, Netflix is releasing Stranger Things in three carefully rationed portions. Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 2 lands on December 25, 2025, giving us the most unsettling Christmas marathon imaginable.
The grand finale, Stranger Things Season 5 Volume 3, premieres on December 31, 2025 making New Year’s Eve less about fireworks and more about emotional damage. And yes, Netflix absolutely planned it this way to keep the internet buzzing for as long as possible.

Will Byers and Hawkins: Season 5 Turning Point
Volume 2 might be the heart of Stranger Things Season 5 and not the comforting kind. With Will Byers essentially positioned as Vecna’s psychic counterpart, the story moves from simple survival to unpacking their very creepy bond. We’re left wondering whether Will is the hero who closes the gate or the catalyst who cracks it wider open. And while everyone argues about that, Hawkins is stuck not because of creatures, but because humans can’t resist poking the Upside Down like it’s a mystery piñata.
