Netflix just released the first teaser trailer for the show\u2019s fifth season, which will also be its last when it starts streaming later this year. As was alluded to in the finale of season 4, the new trailer \u2014 which, despite being called a teaser, clocks in at nearly three minutes long \u2014 is focused on the major showdown with Vecna that will presumably end the string of supernatural bad luck in Hawkins, Indiana for good.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Here\u2019s the official setup for the finale, according to Netflix:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The fall of 1987. Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has vanished \u2014 his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will\u2019s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming \u2014 and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they\u2019ve faced before. To end this nightmare, they\u2019ll need everyone \u2014 the full party \u2014 standing together, one last time.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The finale of <em>Stranger Things<\/em> is a big deal for Netflix, particularly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tv-reviews\/694353\/squid-game-season-3-review-netflix\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tv-reviews\/694353\/squid-game-season-3-review-netflix\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">after <em>Squid Game<\/em> wrapped up earlier in the year<\/a> and as its other big genre franchise, <em>The Witcher<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/4\/18\/24134057\/netflix-the-witcher-season-5-end\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2024\/4\/18\/24134057\/netflix-the-witcher-season-5-end\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also has an end date in sight<\/a>.
