The production of a sixth season for the anime series Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? has been officially confirmed. The announcement was made during the franchise's 10th-anniversary event on February 7, 2026.

A specific broadcast start date for the sixth season was not disclosed at the time of the announcement. In an interview prior to the official confirmation, producer Nobuhiro Osawa commented on the production team's motivation: typically, staff members grow weary on long-running series, but here, those involved remained motivated due to their appreciation for the original author and the story. The announcement of another season is testament to the series' enduring popularity.
