Netflix Announces Squid Game Season 3: Final Chapter Coming Next Summer
In a surprise move, Netflix has confirmed that Squid Game, the popular South Korean series that became Netflix's number one non-English language show of all time, will conclude with its third and final season. The new installment, titled Season 3, will premiere on June 27, 2025.
To build anticipation, the creators have released a trailer, official photos, and key art for fans eager to catch a glimpse of what lies ahead. The latest sneak peeks offer intense previews of Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), the series' hero, as well as a slate of both returning and new characters.
Series creator, director, and executive producer Hwang Dong-hyuk has shared an update on the show's future with fans. "I am beyond excited to be writing this letter to announce the date for Season 2 and share the news of Season 3, the final season," he wrote. "The fierce clash between two worlds (Gi-hun and Front Man's) will continue into the series finale with Season 3, which will be brought to you next year."
In a statement to Tudum, Lee Jung-jae hinted that Gi-hun may still be reeling from his betrayal at the end of Season 2. He said, "I don't think he knows yet. I think he's blaming himself for everything that happened." The full extent of what fans can expect in Season 3 remains under wraps.
Without giving away too many spoilers, sources suggest that Season 3 will pick up where Season 2 left off and follow Gi-hun as he navigates a series of increasingly brutal games. As the stakes grow higher, the moral cost of survival becomes heavier. The season's climax is said to be one of the most intense moments in the entire series.
This decision marks the conclusion of Squid Game, a show that has captured audiences worldwide with its gripping narrative and unforgettable characters. Its final season promises to deliver an unforgettable conclusion to the story of Gi-hun's fight for survival.
