It seems like only yesterday that we finished the second season of Stranger Things (in record-breaking time, might we add).

But, like all epic Netflix shows, as soon as the credits rolled on the final episode, we were hankering for another season to binge on.

Luckily, news came pretty quickly that Season 3 was in the works.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netlix will once again be the place to find the 1980s themed show. 

The Duffer brothers confirmed to the mag that there will be a time jump in the next season. 

Speaking to Variety, producer Shawn Levy gave further deets of the upcoming season.

'Season 3 is set in the summer, so right out of the gate that’s a big difference,' he said. 'The first two seasons were very much school-based.'

'This is that time of year where it’s not about school, it’s about the swimming pool and campfires and parades and Fourth of July and fireworks, so there’s kind of a poppy fun to Season 3 that’s really enjoyable before things inevitably turn super dark.'

Sadly, the release date for the upcoming and highly anticipated series remains elusive. 

Iconic supernatural series Stranger Things has been revived for a third season. 

While it feels like we only just finished Stranger Things 2, we're already excited about the news of a third instalment. 

Stranger Things 3 hasn't even begun shooting yet though, so we shouldn't get our hopes up.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netlix will once again be the place to find the 1980s themed show. 

A return date for the series has not been scheduled (to be fair, ST2 only landed on our screens one month ago).

The Duffer brothers confirmed to the mag that there will be a time jump in the next season.

There is a time gap of about a year between seasons one and two, so it seems we can expect something similar from season three, rather than the new season picking up directly where season two was left off. 

'Even if we wanted to hop into the action faster, we couldn't. Our kids are aging,' Matt Duffer told The Hollywood Reporter. 

'We can only write and produce the show so fast. They're going to be almost a year older by the time we start shooting season three.'

'It provides certain challenges. You can't start right after season two ended. It forces you to do a time jump.'

Time jump or not, we're all ears for news of an estimated release date.
