Stranger Things 4 Volume 1 Final Trailer Out Ahead of May 27 Release

Stranger Things 4 Volume 1 final trailer is out. On Monday, Netflix released the final one-minute trailer for the first part of Stranger Things 4, showcasing glimpses of what fans of the show can expect from the penultimate season. The trailer begins with Max (Sadie Sink) being stranded in the Upside Down. This eerie scene is followed by various clips of the now-separated gang, each tackling their own problems. Previously presumed to be dead, Hopper (David Harbour) has apparently been transported to a Russian prison, which may be the hunting ground of a Demogorgon. The trailer has clocked over half a million views within a day of its release.

The trailer stays vague, keeping away from highlighting any of the major story beats for the fourth season of Stranger Things. Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) can be seen trying to give normalcy a shot in California. Returning to Hawkins, the rest of the gang is playing a dangerous game of Dungeons & Dragons.

Stranger Things co-creator Ross Duffer had recently hinted that Stranger Things 4 will lean heavily towards the horror elements of the show. Duffer has expressed that the nine episodes of the fourth season are "very long", which may be the reason for the three-year gap between the third and fourth seasons.

In related news, leaked images from a tie-in Monopoly game have reportedly revealed some key plot points of this upcoming season. Stranger Things creators Duff brothers were said to be not even consulted for this tie-up which supposedly made them have a "total meltdown".

Stranger Things 4 Volume 1, which includes seven episodes, will be out on Netflix on May 27. Volume 2 with the remaining two episodes is set to arrive on July 1.
