The season will premiere in over 170 countries in 42 languages. New episodes will be available for purchase from digital retailers the day after they premiere on Adult Swim in the United States. The season will then be available to stream on Sept. 1.

The network even released a teaser for this upcoming season. After turning into literal turkeys for Thanksgiving and messing with both intergalactic snakes and human theme parks for Christmas, “Rick and Morty” will be tackling Easter.
