Wondering about the release date for The Breakthrough Episode 5 or whether the series has concluded? This Netflix mini-series follows a detective who teams up with a genealogist to solve a 2004 double murder in Linköping, Sweden. While the show is designed as a limited series, some fans may still want to know if Episode 5 is in the works or if there’s a possibility of a Part 2.

Here’s everything you need to know about the future of The Breakthrough.

Is The Breakthrough Episode 5 real and is it coming out?

No, there isn’t a release date or plans for Episode 5 of The Breakthrough.

Netflix’s Swedish true-crime documentary series is a four-episode mini-series, and no additional episodes are planned. The series concludes with the fourth episode, titled A Lonely Person, where tensions reach their climax. A surprising revelation from an unexpected source leads to a breakthrough in the investigation. The story comes to a definitive close in four episodes.

Could there be a Part 2 of The Breakthrough on Netflix?

Unfortunately for fans hoping for Episode 5 or Part 2 of The Breakthrough, the mini-series has officially concluded.

The Breakthrough on Netflix dramatizes the true story behind the resolution of a 2004 double homicide in the quiet town of Linköping, Sweden. After 16 years without progress, a detective works with a genealogist to crack the case before it goes cold, making it the first murder in Europe solved using genealogical research.

The series explores themes of tragedy, empathy, and the fascinating fusion of traditional police work with genealogical study. Directed by Lisa Siwe and written by Oskar Söderlund, this Swedish TV series delivers a compelling story for true-crime lovers.

With Season 1 concluded, fans speculate about the possibility of The Breakthrough Season 2. While it seems this case has been wrapped up, fans hope for a future season with a different investigation. While Netflix has yet to confirm anything, the show’s popularity has fueled hopes for a continuation. However, the decision will likely depend on the reception and viewership of Season 1.

The cast includes Peter Eggers, Mattias Nordkvist, Jessica Liedberg, Jonatan Rodriguez, Karin de Frumerie, Annika Hallin, Julia Sporre, Malin Güettler, Pevin Hannah Namek Sali, Helen Al-Janabi, Bahador Foladi, Julius Fleischanderl, Per Burell, Emelie Falk, Magnus Mark, and others.

All episodes of The Breakthrough are now streaming on Netflix.
