“Z Nation” Season 6? – The Asylum Teasing a Return for the Zombie Series

Z Nation Season 6

It was back in 2018 that Syfy pulled the plug on The Asylum-produced zombie series “Z Nation,” ending the show after five seasons. But it seems “Z Nation” might be coming back…

The Asylum took to Twitter last night to tweet out a graphic promising a “major announcement soon” from the world of “Z Nation,” noting that the show’s “brief break” is almost over.

Created by Karl Schaefer and Craig Engler, “Z Nation” was originally launched in 2014, with 68 total episodes airing across the five seasons that came to an end back in 2018.

Syfy’s “Z Nation,” the show’s Wikipedia page reminds, “begins three years into a zombie apocalypse caused by a virus that has already killed most humans. The series revolves around the travels of a small group of survivors being led through the apocalypse.”

The zombie series “Black Summer” is part of the “Z Nation” universe as well, a prequel series that took a more serious approach to the zombie apocalypse. Sixteen episodes of “Black Summer” aired across two seasons, but it sounds like we’re not getting a third season.

Set in the dark, early days of a zombie apocalypse, the undead prequel series “Black Summer” stars Jaime King as Rose, a mother torn from her daughter who embarks upon a journey to find her. In the series, “Thrust alongside a small group of American refugees, these complete strangers must find the strength they need to fight their way back to loved ones.”

Is “Black Summer” coming back? Is “Z Nation” Season 6 on the way?

Stay tuned for more from The Asylum…
