Odar announced on May 14, 2020 on Instagram that work on Season 3 was completed. He followed with two images of the cave on May 20, and on May 22, the official Dark Instagram account posted three sets of images captioned "Dark. The final season. Everything is different, yet the same":
- The first featured a handwritten infinity symbol on the superimposed on a portion of the The Fall of the Damned, then the Kahnwald family home.
- The second featured the handwritten words "The End is the Beginning" again on The Fall of the Damned, then a shot of the entrance to the Winden Caves.
- The third again featured the infinity symbol on the painting, then what appears to be Jonas Kahnwald in his trademark yellow raincoat riding his bicycle toward the cooling towers of the Winden Nuclear Power Plant.
Netflix followed with a teaser trailers in German and English on May 26, 2020, also announcing the official release date of June 27, 2020. A full trailer was released on Friday, June 12, 2020. The synopsis reads
- "In the third and final season, Dark reaches its mind-bending conclusion, moving beyond the concept of space and time. Upon arrival in a new world, Jonas tries to make sense of what this rendition of Winden means for his own fate, while the ones left behind in the other world are left on a quest to break the loop that now not only bends time but also space. Two worlds. Light and dark. And in the center a tragic love story of epic proportions."
