Season five of Masha and the Bear is set to release this fall, said Animaccord, the animation studio that produces the show. The fifth season will consist of 26 episodes, each lasting seven minutes. New episodes will be released once a month.

According to Daria Katiba, Director of Marketing at Animaccord, viewers can expect a return to classic characters and plots in season five: “We are returning to our origins, to the basics – everything that viewers loved in seasons 1-2. The same humor, the same picture, classic story.”
