Licensed Titles Follow Local Time Zones

Unlike Netflix Originals, which are released globally at the same Pacific Time, licensed titles are added at midnight in each region’s time zone. If a Netflix title is licensed from another network, such as Brassic in the UK, you’ll find it available at midnight in your respective local time.

Special Timing for Some Korean Dramas and Anime

Certain Korean dramas and anime series released weekly on Netflix may vary slightly in release time. These episodes may arrive earlier or later depending on production and delivery schedules.

Closing Thoughts

With Netflix’s midnight PT release policy, viewers across the world can look forward to catching new content at predictable times. Keep this guide handy, so you’re always prepared to watch the latest release the moment it’s available in your region.
