Helluva Boss Creator Details How Season 3 Will Handle Hazbin Hotel Crossovers
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Vivienne Medrano has outlined plans for Helluva Boss season 3, confirming that subtle visual crossovers with Hazbin Hotel will arrive in October before larger crossover events land in 2027.
Polygon recently caught up with Helluva Boss creator Vivienne Medrano to discuss the upcoming third season and how the much anticipated crossover with companion series Hazbin Hotel will actually roll out. Following the show's major move to Prime Video, fans can expect the first half of season 3 to feature subtle visual crossovers and background cameos. The writing for these early episodes took place before the Amazon partnership solidified, meaning the shared universe connections start small.
However, the second half of the fifteen episode season, slated for 2027, will introduce more direct and substantial crossover elements. Medrano noted in her interview that she is personally a massive fan of full on, focused crossovers, hinting that bigger things are likely on the horizon for both casts. To deliver content to viewers as quickly as possible, Spindlehorse decided to split the massive season into two distinct halves rather than holding everything until the entire block finished production.
While the mid-season split meant the team had to add a little extra polish to make the part one finale feel substantial, Medrano assured fans that the story avoids cheap cliffhangers while still serving as a strong narrative halfway point. With new episodes also heading to YouTube alongside the Prime Video release, the creative team is successfully balancing broad streaming reach with the independent spirit that built the community in the first place.
