Get ready for the final game! Netflix has announced that Squid Game Season 3 will premiere on June 27, just six months after the previous season.
Fans of the hit series won’t find this short gap frustrating, especially considering the three-year wait between Season 1 and Season 2. Picking up where Season 2 left off, Season 3 delves into the choices Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) must make in the face of overwhelming despair. As the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) schemes his next move, the surviving players face increasingly dire consequences with each round of the deadly games. This season promises to elevate the suspense and drama, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.
Netflix has also shared new images and a striking poster to promote Season 3.
The newly released poster is both chilling and symbolic: a pink-clad guard drags a bloodied contestant toward a coffin adorned with a pink ribbon. Gone is the colorful, playful aesthetic of Season 2’s six-legged race; instead, a swirling, flower-patterned floor hints at the brutal and cutthroat finale ahead. The eerie silhouettes of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su — first teased in Season 2’s post-credit scene — suggest that even more sinister games are in store.
It’s no surprise that Squid Game Season 2 became Netflix’s third most-watched season of all time. The season debuted with a staggering 68 million views in its first week, breaking records and securing the #1 spot on the Top 10 TV Series (Non-English) list across 92 countries. As the final chapter unfolds, Season 3 is poised to deliver a grand and unforgettable conclusion to the series.
The burning question on everyone’s mind: Will Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) survive? While the fate of the games seems inevitable, one thing is certain — a new giant doll, Cheol-su, is ready to unleash chaos.
Squid Game Season 3 will begin streaming globally on June 27. Prepare for the ultimate showdown!
