The Walking Dead Daryl Dixon Final Season Confirmed But His Zombie Killing Days Are Not Over Yet PLUS Season 3 Trailer

AMC just dropped a bombshell at San Diego Comic Con 2025 and fans are eating it up like walkers at a buffet. The Walking Dead Daryl Dixon has been officially renewed for a fourth and final season, but hold your apocalypse horses—because Daryl’s story is far from over.

So what does this mean for fans of the most gruff and loyal tracker in the TWD universe? Here's what we know and what you need to keep your blood-soaked eyes on.

Daryl Dixon Season Four Is the End of This Chapter

AMC confirmed that Season Four of The Walking Dead Daryl Dixon will be the show’s final season. This might sound like the end of the road, but it is more like a detour. According to AMC execs and star Norman Reedus, Daryl still has a lot more undead drama ahead of him.

Season Three is set to premiere on September 7, 2025, and takes Daryl and Carol on a wild ride through the UK and Spain. Think less zombie backwoods and more European end-of-the-world flair. Reedus and Melissa McBride are both back and taking on executive producer roles. Translation: these two are calling the shots and making sure their characters go out with a bang not a whimper.

Zombies Meet European Road Trip

If you liked seeing Daryl in post apocalyptic France, get ready for more international chaos. Season Three kicks off with Daryl and Carol crashing on a beach in Spain. There is a new villain known only as the King of Spain and yes that is as ridiculous and amazing as it sounds. Add in a guns for women trafficking plotline and you have yourself one weirdly global zombie soap opera.

The Walking Dead Universe Still Has Bite

Even though Daryl Dixon is ending with Season Four, AMC is not burying Daryl anytime soon. Both Reedus and McBride have teased that this is only the end of this series, not the end of the character. There could be more spin offs, crossovers, or who knows maybe Daryl finally gets a shower and a vacation.

Final Thoughts You Should Not Ignore

The Walking Dead Daryl Dixon might be wrapping up, but it is going out on top with more action, more international intrigue, and of course, more zombie head smashing. Season Four will bring closure to this spinoff but not to the man who made walkers cool.

So stay tuned because in the world of The Walking Dead the end is rarely ever the end.
