'Steven Universe' season 3 updates: Show will reportedly return with 'Steven's Summer Adventure' on July 18; Steven discovers a new power in episode 6

(Facebook/StevenUniverse)A Cartoon Network Canada header teases new episodes are coming starting July 18.

Fans of "Steven Universe" might soon be reunited with their favorite half gem as a new batch of episodes will reportedly arrive this month.

The news that "Steven Universe" will be returning from its hiatus comes courtesy of Cartoon Network Canada. A header image for the station shows that an event dubbed "Steven's Summer Adventure" will start on July 18, which will then lead to a Steven Bomb. For those new to the series, a Steven Bomb refers to the network's habit of showing new episodes of "Steven Universe" consecutively for a week before going on another hiatus. However, it remains to be seen whether this schedule applies to all regions or just in Canada.

The last time fans saw Steven, he challenged a group of Rubies to play America's favorite pastime — baseball. When the show resumes its third season, fans are expecting to see episode 6, "Steven Floats." The episode will reportedly show Steven uncovering a new superpower when in his excitement to be back in Beach City, he jumps and finds himself floating. Unfortunately, he hasn't quite figured how to get back to the ground yet.

This will reportedly be followed by the episode titled "Too Short to Ride." Two short promo videos for this episode suggest that it will be Peridot-centric, as the new Gem is shown discovering the power of velcro and even hugging an unidentified alien. Could this alien be a love interest for Peridot? The teasers don't give anything away, although they are thought to be official clips as they came from the Cartoon Network Anything mobile app.

The titles for this season's remaining episodes of "Steven Universe" have reportedly been leaked, with "Steven Floats" and "Too Short to Ride" expected to be aired n July 18 and 19, respectively. They will be followed by "Drop Beat Dad" on July 20, "Mr. Greg" on July 21, and "the New Lars" on July 22.
