“Westworld ss 5”: release date, announcement
At the moment, the season 5 of the sci-fi drama “Westworld” has not been announced, but we can analyze the known data. Firstly, the high ratings of the released seasons speak in favor of the continuation of the TV series. Secondly, each season was released with an interval of two years (2016, 2018, 2020 and the season 4 was released in 2022). Based on this information, we can assume that the season 5 of “Westworld” will be released no earlier than early 2024.
Plot
Dozens of years have been spent developing a virtual world that allows them to earn a lot of money. It took a lot of investments, but the payback was lightning fast. Westworld is a real Texas, filled with robotic technology, perfectly human-like. Those who wish go here to fulfill their deepest desires.
People do not always travel with good intentions — some just want to fulfill their illegal needs, for which they can only be punished in the real world. Each character located in Westworld plays a role — a plot is initially laid in it, which is periodically repeated. Character data needs to be updated, and the next update fails…
Some heroes don’t behave the way their creators intended. To understand the causes of uncontrolled behavior, a number of measures have to be taken. The head of the project, Bernard, quickly realized that the main problem lies in the depths of memory.

A local prostitute from a bar turns out to be too emotional and behaves differently. This gave her an advantage over others, as visitors liked her resemblance to human. Another lover of one-time sexual entertainment in a conversation mentioned the dreams she sees. This is not provided by the developers, since robotic technology is not able to dream. A woman sees her daughter, the house, and it seems to her that now she is in a completely different place.
Another strange hero is a man dressed in black clothes. He rides a horse, kills robots and does whatever he pleases. He’s smart enough not to get close to anyone who might erase him from the program. For many years, the man in black has been looking for a way out of this game, because he is convinced that everything here is not real …
The characters think they have feelings. Some with bated breath are waiting for their beloved, and someone has to look for their love among the local population. One day, a lot of characters did not behave according to plan. A large influx of visitors affected the plans of the developers and bugs were noticed. But Bernard is forced to eliminate them, who himself has enough problems without that…

Interesting Facts
- The project is based on the 1973 film “Westworld”, which was the first film in history to use computer graphics.

- The author and director of the original film, Michael Crichton, thought about creating a storyline for the future picture after he first visited Disneyland. He rode the attraction “The Pirates of the Caribbean”, and seeing numerous mechanized pirates, he asked himself the question: “What will happen if all these fake pirates come to life and ran amok?”. He replaced the pirates with cowboys, and the story began.
