Netflix has officially confirmed that Squid Game will return for a third season, set to premiere in 2025. The announcement came just days after the release of season 2 and was shared on New Year’s Eve via Netflix’s X account (formerly Twitter).
The post featured a poster showcasing the iconic Red Light, Green Light doll, Young-hee, alongside a male counterpart named Chul-su. “YOUNG-HEE & CHUL-SU,” Netflix captioned. “Squid Game Season 3. Coming 2025.”
Season 2 wrapped with a dramatic cliffhanger, as the episode “Friend or Foe” set the stage for a gripping final showdown in the upcoming season. Fans are encouraged to check out the post-credits scene from season 2 for additional hints about what’s to come.
The massive success of Squid Game has seen significant anticipation for its installments. It took over three years for season 2 to follow the first season’s debut, but viewers won’t have to wait as long for the finale. Seasons 1 and 2 are currently streaming on Netflix.
