How Many Episodes Are In Tracker Season 2?

Tracker Season 1 consisted of 13 episodes, and Tracker Season 2 featured 20 episodes, which means Season 2, Episode 20, “Echo Ridge,” which aired on Sunday, May 11, was the sophomore season’s finale. So the question now is…

Will There Be A Tracker Season 3 On CBS?

Curious if Tracker Season 3 is on the horizon? On February 20, 2025, CBS renewed the popular survivalist drama for Season 3, which means Tracker will return with new episodes in the future.

Back in February, CBS reported that Tracker hit over 18 million multiplatform viewers, which was up four percent year over year. And on May 7, 2025, CBS claimed another big win with Tracker taking the top spot in the network’s 2024-2025 season to date, averaging 17.5 million broadcast and streaming viewers per episode, per a Nielsen 35-day streaming report. It’s clear why CBS was eager to renew the hit series! So when is Tracker’s return date?
