Berserk Announces Volume 44 for 2027
Berserk may release its next volume in 2027, with eight to nine chapters likely to be expected within that gap.
On August 29, 2025, a preview in the newly-released Volume 43 of Berserk has announced that Volume 44 will be released sometime around 2027.
With this deadline set in advance, fans can expect another seven to eight chapters in 2026 and early to mid 2027.
Volume 43 contains 9 chapters, with Chapter 374: “Is the Sleeping Dark Beast Just Standing Quietly?” released on September 22, 2023.
This fits the 2-year gap that Volume 44 is expected to have.
However, this may not be accurate as when Volume 42 was released in 2023 slated Volume 43 to be released in 2024 yet it was released this year.
Chapter 383 will be released on September 12 and will serve as the first chapter of the unreleased Volume 44.
About Berserk
Berserk was originally written and illustrated Kentaro Miura for Hakusensha’s Young Animal Magazine.
Volume 42 was released on December 24, 2021, almost four years ago, and contained the first post-Miura chapters, Chapters 365: “Lull of the Waning Moon” and 373: “Rusty Iron Rings That Bind”.
The Fantasia Arc has been going on since Chapter 308 was published in 2010, around the time Miura began his irregular Berserk releases.
Released on October 1, 1989, Berserk currently has 42 volumes in circulation and has sold over 60 million copies worldwide, making it one of the most popular manga of all time and has been hailed as a core influence of the modern dark fantasy genre not only in Japanese manga but also video games, television, movies, comics and other media in Japan and beyond.
Berserk continues the story of Guts after losing Casca to their former Band leader Griffith once again as he, his traveling band, and other refugees enter the Kushan Empire with the help of former Hawk member Rickert and former nemesis Silat.
Berserk has recently reached 70 million copies sold as of August 7, 2025.
