Aside from small comments from producers that they want to do a Solo Leveling Season 3, nothing else has been revealed. If Solo Leveling Season 3 was coming in 2026, even if it was later in the year, an announcement would have been made by now.
Solo Leveling Season 3 has been delayedbut it may be for a good reason. It seems that the Solo Leveling studio is aiming for another project to succeed and reach sky-high levels in 2026, and it's a movie.

Movie details are still scarce
Solo Leveling Season 3 is on hold for nowbut that doesn't mean fans of the series won't get some new animated content from the series. If anything, something even bigger could be afoot. A few months ago, a leaked production committee report for the series was found by fans. In the report it was revealed that instead of Solo Leveling Season 3, the studio has a movie in store for the fans.
A Solo Leveling movie would be absolutely huge, and it would feature even better animation than Season 2. Fans are definitely excited to see what the studio can accomplish with this movie, and they hope that A-1 Pictures can release it in 2026, as expected. However, the Solo Leveling movie could possibly be pushed back to 2027depending on how production is going.

Solo Leveling Season 3 is not coming, and fans can look forward to this series instead.
As for the content of the Solo Leveling movie, it remains a mystery for now, and fans are waiting for more information from the studio on the matter. One thing fans do know is that the decision to make a movie instead of a third season seems to be due to the huge success of the Demon Slayer movie, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 — Akaza's Return. As such, the implication is that the next Solo Leveling movie will be canon, picking up the Manhwa from where Season 2 left off.
“I would really, really like it if the momentum continued and it didn't just stop because there's so much more of the story left to tell. So season three, season four, season five, maybe even a movie in the works.” —Taito Ban
