Netflix Confirms Squid Game Season 3 Release Date, Reveals New Images

Netflix has officially announced that the highly anticipated third and final season of the global phenomenon, *Squid Game*, will premiere on June 27, 2025. To build excitement, the streaming giant has released a new poster and a series of captivating images, offering fans "a tantalizing glimpse into the fate of the surviving players."

Picking up directly from the gripping cliffhanger of Season 2, Season 3 delves deeper into the harrowing journey of Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae) as he navigates "overwhelming despair." Meanwhile, the enigmatic Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) continues to orchestrate his sinister plans. As the stakes rise, the remaining contestants face increasingly dire consequences with each round of the deadly games, promising to "push the limits of suspense and drama, keeping viewers glued to the action," according to Netflix.

The newly unveiled launch poster features a chilling scene of a pink guard dragging a bloodied contestant toward a coffin adorned with a pink ribbon. "Gone is the rainbow-hued track of Season 2’s six-legged pentathlon; in its place, a vividly swirling flower-pattern floor ominously foreshadows the cutthroat finale to come," Netflix describes. The poster also teases the return of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su, whose silhouettes hint at even more brutal games on the horizon, as first suggested in the post-credit scene of the previous season.
