Good news for Snowpiercer fans – the train is preparing to leave the station once again, with the post-apocalyptic drama returning to Netflix this month.

Building on the first two runs, this season looks to further expand on the mythology, with a survivor from off the train behind introduced in the shape of Archie Panjabi’s Asha. And fans can also rest assured that this won’t be the end of the track for the series, with a fourth instalment having already been confirmed.

The show is one of few Netflix properties that does not arrive all at once, given that it airs on TNT in the US – and so unlike most shows on the streamer, it won’t be possible to binge the entire season all in one go, at least not until all the episodes have dropped.

Read below for the full schedule and when to expect new episodes.

When are new episodes of Snowpiercer available on Netflix?

The first episode, titled The Tortoise and the Hare, became available on Tuesday 25th January, the day after its US debut.

One new episode will then debut on a weekly basis from this point onwards, arriving on the platform every Tuesday until the end of March.

The reason for the weekly schedule concerns the programme’s broadcast schedule in the US. Across the Atlantic, the show is not airing on Netflix but on subscription television network TNT, with episodes broadcast every Monday – so we’ll be getting the episodes just one day after their American premieres.
