Unlike Netflix, Prime Video does not flip everyone over at midnight Pacific. New episodes land at local midnight in each region, so the drop happens at 12:00 AM your time wherever you are. Pick a show, set your zone, get the exact moment plus a live countdown.

No upcoming season announced. We'll update when Prime confirms.
Prime Video drops at local midnight in every region. In UTC that's 00:00 on the release date, not a single global Pacific instant.
Netflix picked a single canonical instant, 12:00 AM in Los Gatos, California, and every region watches the clock tick over to that one UTC moment. Prime Video took the opposite route. Its release system schedules new content against the calendar date in each storefront's own time zone, so the episode unlocks at 00:00 local wherever the viewer is. A fan in London gets the drop at midnight GMT; a fan in Tokyo got it nine hours earlier, at midnight JST. There is no shared worldwide release instant to count down to, which is exactly why a "global" countdown clock would be wrong for Prime. This converter resolves the drop against the time zone you select, so the number you see is the real one for where you are.
Local-midnight releases assume the title actually launches on the same calendar date in your region, and that is not always true. Prime Video licenses content storefront by storefront, so a season that lands in the US on one Friday may arrive in another country a week later, or sit behind a separate Prime add-on channel. When the release date differs by region, the local-midnight rule still holds, but it applies to that region's announced date, not the US date. If a show is marked complete or its next season is TBA here, it usually means Prime has not confirmed a synced date across the major storefronts yet. Always sanity-check against the Prime Video page in your own country before setting a reminder.
A VPN will not make a Prime Video episode unlock earlier, the local-midnight schedule is tied to the storefront, not your IP address. What a VPN does change is which regional catalog you can browse: routing through another country can surface a library where a title is available that is not yet listed in yours, or one with the original audio track. Prime actively detects and blocks shared VPN ranges, so the services that invest in rotating residential-grade IPs (NordVPN is the most consistent in testing) are the ones that get through. Free VPNs are almost always already on the block list.
