Netflix has finally unveiled the first look of its final and fifth chapter, which will arrive in 2025. This was released to celebrate Stranger Things Day and fairly succeeded in exciting the fans.

For those who might have forgotten, it was on November 6, 1983, when mystery unfolded in Hawkins, Indiana following Will Byers' (Noah Schnapp) sudden disappearance and the gradual revelation of the Upside Down and Eleven's powers. Eleven gave it all to help her friends stand against the dark force, or we should say the leading foe Vecna.

Created by the Duffer brothers, Stranger Things has completed triumphant four seasons on Netflix and remains one of the biggest hits on the streamer. The fourth season ended with a hint that there's still more to come, and for the last time.

While talking about Stranger Things Season 5, Ross Duffer confirmed that the remaining questions will be addressed in the last season, which is now a few months away. Ross Duffer said:

"The last remaining questions... we’ve punted a couple of those to have some big reveals in season 5. And that’s really going to affect what season 5 is about."

Now that the first look and the episode titles are out, fans can determine how Stranger Things Season 5 is going to be. As promised by Netflix, "In the fall of 1987, one last adventure begins" with Eleven and her group set to face off against their biggest foe.
