BLACKPINK is finally releasing a third mini album, a few years after their last studio album dropped.
On Thursday, January 14, YG Entertainment announced that the global K-pop girl group’s third mini album, “DEADLINE,” will be released on February 27, at 12:00 AM (EST) or 1:00 PM (KST). The album shares the same title as BLACKPINK’s world tour title, which began in July 2025, and will conclude on January 26 this year.
The group has yet to announce further details about the album, such as its tracklist and title track.
For now, fans can purchase the DEADLINE album merch on the group’s website. The photobook has five versions total: Black, Pink, Silver, Gray, and Mood light. Each album includes a group-folded poster, photo stickers, and photocards. Some albums include a graphic sticker and a photo film ticket.
Meanwhile, the Mood Light version includes an hourglass mood lamp, along with a user guide and a USB-C to A cable.
DEADLINE will be the group’s third mini album, following Square Up’s release in 2018 and Kill This Love in 2019.
BLACKPINK has released two studio albums so far: The Album in 2020 and Born Pink in 2022.
