IGN's review of Reacher Season 3 awarded it an 8/10, praising the series for its divergence from the source material while maintaining the essence of Reacher's character. The review noted, "Reacher season 3 diverges more from the book upon which it’s based than previous seasons, but Reacher himself is more ruthless than ever and it remains a righteous good time."
Looking ahead, fans can rejoice as Reacher Season 4 has already been confirmed, greenlit even before Season 3 began airing.
