1. New Live EP
Led Zeppelin will put out a live EP titled Live E.P. on September 12, 2025. It contains four tracks previously released on their 2003 Led Zeppelin DVD but this will be the first time these particular live performances are issued widely as audio-only (on vinyl, CD, streaming, etc.).
Tracks include:
In My Time of Dying (Earl’s Court, 1975)
Trampled Under Foot (Earl’s Court, 1975)
Sick Again (Knebworth, 1979)
Kashmir (Knebworth, 1979)
2. 50th Anniversary Edition of Physical Graffiti
Also confirmed is a special anniversary edition of their 1975 album Physical Graffiti. This involves a remaster and additional promotional items. It is being released alongside the Live EP.

What isn’t confirmed or seems questionable
1. New Studio Album
There are rumors and social media posts claiming Led Zeppelin will release a new studio album by the end of 2025. However:
I found no official statement from the band’s verified channels confirming a studio album.
Some reports cite “Led Zeppelin announce new album release in 2025” but they seem based on speculation or misinterpretation of other announcements (like the EP and anniversary editions).
There are also countering statements calling these rumors “fake news.”
2. Band Lineup & Activity
The original drummer, John Bonham, passed in 1980; his absence has always been central in discussions of new material. Any new group effort would need to account for that. Rumors sometimes suggest Jason Bonham (his son) might be involved, but there’s no solid confirmation.
No details have emerged (as far as credible sources go) about a recording schedule, song list, producer, or even whether all surviving members are part of any supposed project. Rumours that Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones are working together exist, but none have been substantiated in trustworthy outlets.

Why people believe there may be one
Recent visibility: Reissues, remasters, the Live EP, and archival projects (such as the anniversary edition) are raising interest. When legacy bands do these, fans often anticipate new studio output.
Rumours are being spread via forums, social media, and sites that sometimes blur speculation with fact. Once something gets repeated, it starts appearing more credible even in absence of proof.
Historical precedent: Led Zeppelin has periodically worked on archival / unreleased material and had occasional reunions. So, it’s not entirely out of character to imagine them possibly collaborating again.

Conclusion
At present, there is no reliable proof that Led Zeppelin have officially announced a new studio album for the end of 2025. The confirmed releases are the Live E.P. and the 50th anniversary edition of Physical Graffiti. Unless a statement comes from the band or a trusted music industry source, the new album remains speculative.
