The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3 Release Date
Circle September 7, 2025 on the calendar, stick a note on the fridge, text your group chat—whatever works for you. That’s when The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 3 officially kicks off on AMC and AMC+ in the US. If you’re on the other side of the pond, tradition says British viewers get new episodes via Sky and NOW a few days after the American premiere, but as of this writing, those platforms haven’t confirmed exact dates yet. So, maybe pester a friend in the States for spoilers, or play it old-school and avoid social media for a day or two.

There’s something extra about release days in this fandom—remember back when the original TWD dropped its mid-season cliffhangers? That same gut-level tingle still hits. Admittedly, it’s wild seeing Daryl Dixon go from crossbow-wielding loner to headline his own series, with entire YouTube channels already speculating where he’ll land next (Spain, this time—seriously, they’re filming all over Galicia, Aragón, Catalonia, and Valencia).
How Many Episodes Are in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3?
Direct answer: Season 3 is packing a compact, punchy seven episodes.
Seven episodes—enough to binge in a lost weekend, but not so much that it feels padded. Some fans love a sprawling 16-episode run, others dig the shorter, clearer arcs. Personally, with how tightly plotted last season was (and how much the European scenery seems to matter this time around), seven feels right. Quality over quantity, right? Word is, each episode will drop weekly, Sundays on AMC—so your Mondays at work will either be about lurking walkers or awkward attempts to dodge spoilers by the coffee machine.

-
Release date: September 7, 2025 (US)
-
Episode count: 7
-

Where and How to Watch The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon Season 3?
Let’s get you a viewing plan. In the US, episodes premiere Sundays, 9 p.m. ET/PT, on AMC and—if you’re into streaming—AMC+ drops them at the same time (sometimes a few hours early if you’re lucky). If you’ve cut the cord, AMC+ is available as a standalone subscription or as an add-on through platforms like Prime Video, Apple TV, and Roku—frankly, it’s more convenient than working zombie shift at a rural French castle.
If you’re overseas, here’s the lay of the land:
-
UK: Keep your eyes on the Sky and NOW apps. Expect a small delay; sometimes it’s four days, a week, but they’re consistently the go-to for British TWD fans.
-
Other regions: Local platforms may differ. Try not to get trapped in a region-lock loophole; official Walking Dead accounts usually tweet updates as soon as deals are signed.
For the true digital nomad: VPNs can be your friend, but—no judging—support the show if you can.
As for the show itself: after two seasons of French bleakness (and the excellent Carol-and-Daryl reunions in season 2), the action’s heading to Spain and England for season 3. Expect new faces, yes, but the heart of the show—Daryl’s humor and messy loyalty—endures. Stephen Merchant (yes, him) joins as “the last Englishman in England,” and that’s a subplot almost designed for highlight reel memes.
