Upload is back for a third season on Prime Video. The futuristic series stars Robbie Amell in a world where no one has to die; instead, people live forever in a virtual reality where you can live out your fantasies…for the right price. 

In the season 3 trailer, Amell’s Nathan has to contend with the possibility that there’s another version of him out in the world after he was “rebooted from a backup copy.” Naturally, having two Nathans isn’t ideal and chaos ensues. 

As much as Upload is a sci-fi comedy, there has always been a serious undertone highlighting socio-economic disparity; here, the old expression “he who dies with the most toys still dies” doesn’t ring true, as one’s experience in the afterlife is based on how much money they have to spend. 

That said, watching Amell’s Nathan trying to navigate the afterlife is a lot of fun. The eight-episode season continues his story. 

Here’s everything we know about Upload season 3.
