The third and final season of the Western drama Billy the Kid is now airing, concluding the epic story of the infamous outlaw. The eight-episode season premiered in late September 2025 and will run through November, bringing Billy’s saga to a close on MGM+.
Season 3 Storyline and Setting
The final season picks up after the violent Lincoln County War has ended. Billy the Kid, played by Tom Blyth, remains a wanted fugitive with a bounty on his head. Sheriff Pat Garrett, once his friend, is now determined to capture him dead or alive.
The official series synopsis sets the stage for the final conflict: “With a bounty on his head, Billy has the opportunity to quit New Mexico altogether and pursue a future with Dulcinea, the love of his life. But he has unfinished business with Garrett, who has betrayed him, and decides to stay.” This decision sets the two former friends on a direct path toward a final, tense reckoning.
