Number of Episodes:
The season panel itself, Season 3 will be 6 episodes, just a longer season. (Season 1 had 9 episodes; Season 2 had 7.)
Although it’s short, each episode delivers the high-octane drama, unexpected twists, and emotional punchlines that define Squid Game’s unique storytelling style.
The Story This Time:
The new season picks up right after the dramatic end of Season 2, as Gi-hoon grapples with grief and betrayal. But this time, he’s not just a victim – he’s on a mission to destroy the game forever.
Expect deeper insights into the mysterious front man, more deadly challenges, and plenty of psychological warfare. This fight isn’t just for survival – this time, it’s for justice.
Originally intended to be a one-season story, the overwhelming success of Squid Game led creator Hwang Dong-hyuk to expand it into a global franchise. With millions of fans worldwide, expectations for this season are skyrocketing – and it looks like the show won’t disappoint.
