Shirin David, Rea Garvey, Nico Santos, and duo Michi & Smudo returned as coaches after one, two, three, and six-season hiatuses, respectively. [1] Calum Scott is the new "Comeback Stage" coach, selecting contestants to participate in The Voice: Comeback Stage by SEAT . [2] Thore Schölermann returned for his fourteenth season as host, with Melissa Khalaj returning for her fourth season as host. [3]
In April 2025, ProSieben and Sat.1 announced that all four coaches from the previous season; Mark Forster, Yvonne Catterfeld, Kamrad, and Samu Haber; would depart the panel for the upcoming fifteenth season. This marks the third season to have all coaches from the previous panel replaced, following season 13 and 14. On 20 April 2025, it was announced that previous coaches Rea Garvey, duo Michi & Smudo, Nico Santos, and Shirin David will return as coaches for their eighth, sixth, third, and second seasons, respectively. [4] This marks the first time since the second season that a new coach has not been introduced.
On 19 August 2025, it was announced that Calum Scott would be featured as a coach for the "Comeback Stage", which was last present in season 11. [5]
Both Thore Schölermann and Melissa Khalaj returned as hosts from last season.

The Blind Auditions began broadcasting on 25 September 2025, and is broadcast every Thursday on ProSieben and every Friday on Sat.1. This season, the blocks returned, but with a twist. Unlike the previous seasons, each coach now only has two blocks that they can use to block another coach. However, they can choose to use the block at any time, even during their pitch, as long as the coach turned their chair. Only one block is allowed per audition; once a coach already used their block, the other coaches are not allowed to use their block. In addition, this season introduced the Joker. Each coach has a coin and is only allowed to use it once to try to further convince the artist to join their team. Each coach has seventeen spots to fill on their team, and, unlike last season, each coach filled their team. This is the second season in The Voice of Germany history where at least one coach (Shirin David in this case) does not have a one-chair turn on their team.
