Gen V, the new spin-off The Boys, completed its first season so here’s a complete breakdown of its release schedule, including dates for each episode in Season 1.
Before supes graduate into a life of crimefighting or headlining Hollywood movies, they have to make it through Godolkin University, Vought’s campus for up-and-coming heroes (and villains).
The new show primarily follows Marie (Jaz Sinclair), a blood bender who quickly finds herself overwhelmed by the hormonal, violent ways of university life, but when she’s suddenly positioned as a frontrunner on the league table, she also becomes embroiled in a larger conspiracy beneath the glossy veneer of the school.
After the release of the first three episodes, we’ve got all the details on Gen V’s release schedule over the coming weeks.
How many episodes of Gen V are there?
There will be eight episodes of Gen V in total.
Much like The Boys, and unlike Netflix’s usual release strategy, Gen V hasn’t dropped on the platform in one go for people to binge – however, the first three episodes premiered together, so you have the best part of three hours of gory, hilarious entertainment ahead of you.

The official synopsis for the series reads: “Set in the diabolical world of The Boys, Gen V expands the universe to Godolkin University, the prestigious superhero-only college where students train to be the next generation of heroes – preferably with lucrative endorsements.
“You know what happens when supes go bad, but not all superheroes start out corrupt. Beyond the typical college chaos of finding oneself and partying, these kids are facing explosive situations … literally. As the students vie for popularity and good grades, it’s clear that the stakes are much higher when super powers are involved. When the group of young supes discover that something bigger and sinister is going on at school, they’re put to the test: Will they be the heroes or the villains of their stories?”
