Squid Game Season 3 trailer to drop in May; fans gear up for CHILLING finale in June 2025 |
The global hit Korean drama Squid Game is set to return for its highly anticipated third and final season. With the countdown on for its June 27, 2025 release, speculation has been mounting that the first trailer could drop as early as May, further fueling the excitement surrounding the series’ dramatic conclusion.
Following the record-breaking success of Season 2—Netflix’s third most-watched debut season with a staggering 68 million views—Season 3 promises to raise the stakes even higher. Teaser images released hint at a darker, more intense chapter, while a cryptic 17-second teaser video posted earlier this year introduced a new, ominous figure named, Chul-su.
Chul-su, a male counterpart to Young-hee—the iconic “Red Light, Green Light” doll—signals a chilling escalation in the show’s already brutal narrative. First hinted at in a post-credit scene, his presence suggests the evolution of the deadly games, pushing contestants to their limits in a final, harrowing showdown.
Squid Game captivated audiences worldwide with its shocking dystopian setting with contestants literally playing with life and death as they participate in children’s games. With new games and the stakes higher than ever before, Season 3 is poised to deliver a powerful and unforgettable conclusion.
Squid Game made television history as the first non-English television series to receive nominations and to win the Primetime Emmy Awards. In total, the show has earned 14 nominations and has won 6 awards, including Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series, and Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series.
With only months to go, fans across the globe are bracing for what the finale will hold.
