Futurama Season 13: Disney+ Says 'Bite My Shiny Metal...Binge!' With Surprise Release
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Get ready to binge, Futurama fans! Season 13 is dropping all episodes at once on Disney+, offering a hefty dose of 31st-century shenanigans straight to your screen.
Right, listen up, Futurama fans! Remember how waiting a week for each new episode felt like an eternity trapped in cryosleep? Well, Disney+ heard your pleas (or maybe they just looked at the viewing figures) because Futurama Season 13 is dropping *all at once* on September 15, 2025. That's according to a recent report by IGN South Africa.
Yep, you heard right. No more agonizing cliffhangers, no more dissecting every frame for hidden jokes (okay, you'll *still* do that, but now you can do it *faster*). Disney+ is chucking all ten episodes of the new season straight into your eyeballs in one glorious, binge-worthy hit. Think of it as a delivery from Mom's Friendly Robot Company, but instead of lethal doses of sugar, it's pure, unadulterated Futurama goodness.
Of course, if you prefer the old-school method of savoring your animated sci-fi, FXX will still be rolling out two episodes a week starting on the same date. So, you can choose your own adventure: a weekend-long Bender-bender (pun intended) or a leisurely stroll through the 31st century.
What's in store for us this season? Well, Disney+ teases the usual chaos: Bender going haywire (surprise!), a volcano threatening to erupt (sounds like Tuesday), Fry battling for Leela's affections (again!), and Zoidberg...ascending to heaven? Bloody hell, that's one I didn't see coming. Sounds like someone's finally getting the respect he deserves. Maybe. Probably not.
Now, Futurama's journey to our screens has been, shall we say, *turbulent*. From its initial run on Fox in the late '90s, to its resurrection on Comedy Central, to its decade-long slumber, this show's been through more ups and downs than Fry on a pogo stick. Disney+'s revival, starting with Season 11, seems to have struck a chord, though, with the show apparently cracking the top 10 streaming originals this year (according to Nielsen, anyway – take that with a grain of salt, eh?).
It's also worth noting that there's even more Futurama on the horizon, with Season 14 already slated for 2026. So, it seems like Fry, Leela, Bender, and the rest of the Planet Express crew are here to stay (at least until Disney+ decides to freeze them again).
While you're waiting, you can check out IGN's reviews of Season 11 and 12 for a reminder of where things stand. Just don't blame me if they make you even *more* impatient for September 15th. In the meantime, I reckon I'll rewatch the entire series… for research, of course.
