Amazon Axes 'Wheel of Time' After 3 Seasons, Story Incomplete

Jun 01,2025 Author: Christopher

Prime Video has announced the cancellation of "The Wheel of Time" after Amazon decided against renewing the series for a fourth season. Despite reportedly favorable feedback from executives, financial considerations proved insurmountable. The show, based on Robert Jordan's beloved fantasy novels, underwent significant changes from its source material in the first two seasons, sparking controversy among fans. However, Season 3 received critical acclaim, earning IGN's review team an 8/10 rating and praise for its character development within Jordan's intricate world.

Co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and Amazon's MGM Studios, "The Wheel of Time" faced challenges due to its high production costs. This mirrors the financial pressures experienced by "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power," another Amazon Studios production. While Season 3 performed well critically, its overall viewership and revenue did not meet expectations relative to expenses.

Despite the series' conclusion, fans will find solace in the development of a AAA open-world RPG based on "The Wheel of Time." IGN recently spoke with iwot Studios, the rights holders, to learn more about this upcoming project. For now, audiences will have to savor the three-season journey through Robert Jordan's epic saga.
