Recently, The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke revealed that the fourth season of the series is ready. But, if the episodes have already been completed, the question remains: why does the series only return to Prime Video in June? Now, Kripke has taken to Twitter to explain the delay. See the post and then the translation:
For everyone asking why we can't release it right away: now Amazon needs to dub the show in dozens of languages, different countries need different formats, on and on. It's what happens when you drop the show globally at once. That'll take 'em right up to June 13. #TheMoreYouKnow https://t.co/GjQe194Kqn

"For everyone who asks me why we're not releasing the fourth season of The Boys now: Amazon needs to work on dubbing in dozens of languages, different countries need different formats, and so on. That's what happens when you release a series all over the world at once. This process will be carried out until June 13th," said Kripke.
The Boys ended its 3rd season in mid-2022 and, since then, has gained a spin-off Gen V. All episodes of the franchise are available for streaming on Prime Video. The 4th season of The Boys begins a month after the events of the Gen V finale and is scheduled to premiere on June 13th.
