Adult Swim has finally announced a release date for the much-awaited Season 8 of its popular show, Rick and Morty. Season 7 concluded in December 2023, and ever since, fans have been waiting for the announcement of the show's next season.
Now, in a unique style, Adult Swim has announced the release date for Rick and Morty Season 8, and it's sooner than you'll expect.
Adult Swim held a 22-minute live broadcast called "Portal People," which featured real people in the world of Rick and Morty. The theatrical broadcast was very well received by the audience and prompted the President of Adult Swim, Michael Ouweleen , to thank the fans for encouraging them to pursue a full-fledged Broadway series of the same.
After this broadcast, a teaser for Season 8 of Rick and Morty was released on the production's official YouTube channel, with the caption,
"Rick and Morty season 8 premieres May 25 at 11p on Adult Swim. US Max and Hulu September 1."

Rick and Morty Season 8 release date: Everything we know so far
Season 7 of Rick and Morty featured many important moments in the show, with one of the most significant moments being a rare moment of self-reflection, where the sardonic Rick realizes that he needs to embrace his current reality rather than chase the memories of his late wife. His grandson, the anxious Morty, on the other hand, contemplates what life would be like if he did not center it around his grandfather.
While Season 7 ended on a relatively heavier note, it also created the ground for the show to return to its lighthearted nature in future seasons. Season 7 closed two major storyline arcs for both of the leading characters, solidifying the base for the Sanchez family to return to their chaotic adventures in Season 8.
Speaking about the upcoming season, Michael Ouweleen, President of Adult Swim, suggested that viewers get ready for yet another season of great television.
