Pitchfork reports that the announcement was made on Twitter in response to a fan query, which was then followed by a humorous back-and-forth between BoJack and Netflix's accounts.

It all escalated pretty quickly, but now everyone's going to read about the release date.
In between all these arguments, Netflix shared the first still image from the forthcoming season. Consequence of Sound say that BoJack has either landed himself a new role, or he's scorned another woman, the latter of which seems much more plausible.

BoJack Horseman stars Will Arnett (Arrested Development), Alison Brie (Mad Men) and Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad).
The series has been dubbed the 'saddest show on television' with the last couple of seasons growing darker and darker.
We've watched BoJack engage in an inappropriate sexual encounter with the daughter of his ex-girlfriend. Last year we watched the overdose death of his longtime friend.
But, Consequence of Sound report that Season Four, the show feels free to make emotional gut punches without the need to abide by any genre restraints that come with being an animated comedy.
And it makes us wonder what we will see from this new season that is on the horizon. We've got less than three months to find out and that isn't so bad.
