CBS’s Justin Hartley-led drama Trackeris officially back for its third season. After ranking as the highest-rated scripted series last season, viewers are eager to see what’s next. Keep reading to find out exactly when new episodes drop on CBS and Paramount+.

In Season 3, Hartley reprises his role as the lone-wolf survivalist who travels across the country to track down missing people. The drama series, which premiered in February 2024, is based on Jeffery Deaver’s bestselling crime novel, The Never Game.

“Following last season’s explosive finale, Colter is wrestling with hard truths about his family’s history,” the synopsis for Season 3 reads. “In the wake of these shocking revelations, and aided by his trusted team, Colter must put the past in the rearview to focus on what he does best: using his instincts and survival skills to find the missing and collect rewards.”

Season 3 comes with a few major cast changes. Abby McEnany’s Velma Bruin and Eric Graise’s Bobby Exley won’t be back as series regulars, but fans can look forward to the return of Fiona Rene as Reenie, Jensen Ackles as Russell, Brent Sexton as Keaton, and Chris Lee as Randy.

Without revealing spoilers, Sunday’s premiere kicked off a gripping two-part storyline, ending with both Colter and Russell’s lives in danger. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hartley teased that after next week’s episode, the show will take a turn in a direction viewers haven’t seen before.

“We are actually in the middle of it right now where Colter will find himself in a sticky situation,” the actor explained. “He will have to use all of his knowledge and skills, everything in his bag, to try to evade and keep himself away from authorities. Instead of him always looking and chasing after someone, he is being chased. This is an interesting turn for our show.”

So, how long will fans have to wait to see part two of the action-packed premiere and the rest of Season 3? Here’s everything to know about Tracker’s release schedule.
