Season 13 is a direct follow-up to Season 12 and the last season of the Chorus Trilogy, in which the Blood Gulch Crew, the New Republic and the Federal Army of Chorus join forces to go to war against Chairman Malcom Hargrove and his space pirates. While this season is the last of the Chorus Trilogy, it doesn't fully conclude the story of many characters, including most members of the Blood Gulch Crew, Locus and the inhabitants of Chorus.

Zero is the eighteenth full season of RvB. Zero focused on a new cast of characters, under the team named "Shatter Squad", who fights against an organization led by someone named "Zero". Due to the negative reception the season had, the storyline set up in Zero was scrapped, and development on a different storyline was took by Rooster Teeth.

{{Main|wiki=rvb|Red vs. Blue: Restoration}}
Announced on July 7, 2023, '''Restoration''' was announced as the nineteenth and final full season of RvB, bringing Burnie Burns back as the final season's writer and Matt Hullum as season's director. '''Restoration''' takes place right at the end of Season 13, re-canonizing The Shisno Trilogy and Zero as simulations run by Epsilon in his last living moments while he tries to make sure his friends will make out alive in the unforeseable future. When an old enemy returns, the Reds and Blues must join forces one last time. Originally planned to be released in an episodic schedule, '''Restoration''' was instead released as a full-length film as result of Rooster Teeth Productions being shut down by Warner Bros. Discovery.

**If the player shoots a hidden box in Episode 10 Chapter 3, when Crimson must aboard a [[Lich]] with jetpacks, Freelancer Agent Georgia will say "Cool, jetpacks! That'll help us get on that ship or my name isn't Agent Georgia". This Easter is a reference to a running gag in Season 10, in which Agent Georgia was involved in a terrible incident, due to not following "course correction" while using a jetpack and his body was never found. At the same time, that reference is heavily reminiscent of [[James-005]]'s fate.
