The second volume of the series will then air from July 1.

In an Instagram post, Netflix has also confirmed there will be a fifth season of the popular sci-fi drama.

Captioning the post, Netflix said: "STRANGER THINGS S4 NEWS

"Stranger Things S4 arrives 27 May *and* 1 July.

"Yes! It's coming in 2 volumes, as part of a supersized S4 (nearly 2x the length of S3!)

"S4 will be the penultimate season, Stranger Things will end with S5!!

Fans were recently treated to the Stranger Things season four episode trailer.

The video is set in a dreamy California, and sees Eleven read out a letter she's writing to Mike about her new life on the other side of the country with Joyce, Will and Jonathan.

But, as ever, the idyllic scenes soon grind to a halt - and there are gunshots, armed soldiers, and an explosion.

Season three of Stranger Things was released in July 2019, but it’s likely the new series will release earlier in the year after such a long wait due to the pandemic.

Producer Shawn Levy previously said the series would "maybe be better than ever".

He said ‘I’ll just say the pandemic definitely massively delayed shooting and therefore the launch of our current Season 4, date still TBD.

‘But it impacted very positively by allowing the Duffer brothers, for the first time ever, to write the entire season before we shoot it and to have time to rewrite in a way that they rarely had before so the quality of these screenplays are exceptional, maybe better than ever.’

David Harbour also teased series four during the Superbowl last weekend.

Appearing alongside co-star Noah Schnapp, who plays Will Byers, David flashed a message typed on his phone to the cameras.

It read: "ST4 is coming sooon, promise".
