Players in Squid Game face tough choices—Team X or Team O, right or left, red light or green light—with their lives on the line and only seconds to decide. The gripping series is gearing up for its final chapter, premiering on Netflix on June 27. The newest trailer reveals intense battles ahead for Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), his allies, and his enemies, including the mysterious Front Man, all racing toward the ultimate round of Squid Game.
Bigger Risks and New Challenges Await
Get ready for familiar faces, deadly new games, and stakes higher than ever before in Squid Game Season 3. Series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk told Tudum that this season will explore what Gi-hun does after his last attempt to change the game ends in failure. The story picks up immediately after Season 2’s dramatic finale, where Gi-hun led a rebellion against the game’s secret rulers—but sadly, many of his friends lost their lives, and the uprising was crushed.
The trailer, revealed during Netflix Tudum 2025: The Live Event, shows Gi-hun struggling with guilt and regret. “He is in complete despair after losing everything and seeing his efforts fail,” Hwang explains. The story challenges whether Gi-hun can overcome this shame and prove that values like kindness and conscience can survive even in such a cruel world.
Deadly Games and Dangerous Enemies Return
Gi-hun’s journey will be full of dangers: the armed pink guards and ruthless players remain a constant threat. The trailer confirms that Young-hee—the haunting doll from the original Red Light, Green Light game—will return, this time with even deadlier tricks. You definitely won’t want to fall for her again.
Fans also get a glimpse of a new terrifying game, full of danger at every turn, promising more suspense and surprises.
Secrets Unfold: The Front Man’s True Identity
Lee Byung-hun, who plays Front Man, assures fans that Season 3’s surprises will be worth the wait. “Season 2 built up dramatic stories around many characters. Now, Season 3 will bring everything to an intense and thrilling climax,” he said.
Gi-hun faces a shocking revelation himself. In Season 2, he was unaware that his new friend In-ho is actually the ruthless Front Man. The trailer hints Gi-hun may now be closer to uncovering this secret. We see Gi-hun in a suit walking through Front Man’s lair, while Front Man removes his mask and asks in a chilling voice, “Player 456, do you still have faith in people?”
What’s Next for Gi-hun?
Will Gi-hun answer with hope or despair? Are we headed for a final face-to-face clash between Gi-hun and the Front Man? To find out, tune in to Squid Game Season 3, streaming on Netflix starting June 27.
