Netflix Sets December Premiere For ‘Squid Game’ 2, Renews Series For Season 3

Netflix is giving “Squid Game” the trilogy treatment!

The streamer announced the highly anticipated Season 2 of the hit series will premiere on December 26, 2024. 

See the announcement video below.

But, that’s not all…

Netflix has already given “Squid Game” a Season 3 renewal, which will serve as the final season. 

“Squid Game” premiered in 2021, introducing fans to a lethal competition that entices players with the promise of 45.6 billion won cash prize.

Down-on-his-luck dad Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) enters the game and is manipulated by forces beyond his comprehension.

One of those puppet masters is Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), a mysterious figure who helps manage the game.

Series director, writer, and executive producer Hwang Dong-hyuk confirmed the news in an emotional letter to fans. 

It’s been almost three years since Season 1 was met with incredible response around the world and so many unimaginable events took place.

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.

On the first day we began shooting Season 2, I remember thinking, ‘Wow, I can’t believe I’m back in the world of Squid Game.’

It almost felt surreal.

I wonder how it will feel for you to be back in ‘Squid Game’ after three years, as well. 

Seeing Gi-hun who vowed revenge at the end of Season 1 returns and joins the game again.

Will he succeed in getting his revenge?

Front Man doesn’t seem to be an easy opponent this time either.

The fierce clash between their two worlds will continue into the series finale with Season 3, which will be brought to you next year. 

I am thrilled to see the seed that has plagued in created a new ‘Squid Game’ grow and bear fruit through the end of this story. 

We’ll do our best to make sure we bring you yet another thrill ride. I hope you’re excited for what’s to come.

Thank you, always, and see you soon, everyone.

I’m ready to see what’s next for “Squid Game” and how it all will end!
