When is 'Cobra Kai' S4 coming out?
Cobra Kai is among the few Netflix shows that have received a go-ahead for the next season even before the current one was released. A report in What’s on Netflix reveals that Cobra Kai Season 4 was renewed long before season 3 hit our screens. Seasons 1 and 2 of Cobra Kai released on YouTube Premium and season 3 was originally commissioned by YouTube Premium. However, as part of a strategy shift, the third season got picked up by Netflix. Netflix also got access to seasons 1 and 2 which hit Netflix in the summer of 2020.
When we moved to Netflix, they had us open up a writers room with us all expecting we'd be making a Season 4. That said, the show needed to perform well for us to officially get picked up. #CobraKai #CobraKaiOnNetflix https://t.co/UVqLzHkhzI

However, Cobra Kai’s move to Netflix was without a guarantee of getting a season 4. According to a tweet by one of the show’s creators Jon Hurwitz, Netflix provided them with a writer’s room when Cobra Kai moved on Netflix. But they were also informed that the show had to perform well on the platform to be able to get another season.
How are they making 'Cobra Kai' S4?
According to What’s on Netflix, the show is now in the pre-production stage. As it was revealed that, writing for season 4 technically began before the show was even fully picked up by Netflix. The team was waiting to see how season 1 and 2 would do. The report further revealed that by late October 2020, the writing staff had concluded after 14 weeks of writing.
Final day of the Season 4 writers room. 14 weeks with some of my favorite people in the world. Scripts are rolling in. Excited we’ll have everything written and polished by the time we start filming. It’s going to be another kick ass season! #cobrakai #cobrakaionnetflix pic.twitter.com/a5xBaZcOLZ
