Netflix has officially released the much-anticipated trailer for Squid Game Season 3, marking the beginning of the end for the groundbreaking Korean survival thriller.
Set to premiere globally on June 27, 2025, this final chapter promises to deliver a gripping, emotionally charged conclusion to a story that has captivated millions. With the stakes higher than ever, Squid Game fans can expect an explosive blend of tension, betrayal, and rebellion.
The newly released trailer offers a deeper glimpse into the evolving resistance against the oppressive game masters. Front and center is Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), whose failed rebellion in Season 2 left many fans with unanswered questions. However, the trailer reveals a game-changing twist: Gyeong-seok (Player 246), thought to have perished during the uprising, is in fact still alive.
At the 0:46 mark of the teaser, a brief but revealing shot confirms Gyeong-seok’s survival. Kang No-eul (played by Park Gyu-young), a mysterious masked employee who showed signs of sympathy toward the players, appears to have saved him. Not only did she prevent his execution, but she also seems to have disabled the tracking device inside his body, allowing him to fake his death and evade the Front Man’s surveillance.
Gyeong-seok’s return is more than a surprise—it’s a turning point. His presence gives Gi-hun a much-needed secret ally as he prepares for a final showdown against the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun). Kang No-eul’s motives might be rooted in compassion, especially given her bond with Gyeong-seok’s daughter, Na-yeon, who is battling blood cancer—a heartfelt connection hinted at in Squid Game Season 2, Episode 1.
The trailer also showcases No-eul covertly navigating the Squid Game facility, suggesting her possible alliance with Gi-hun’s underground rebellion. Whether she’s helping Gyeong-seok escape or already aiding Gi-hun’s cause, her insider knowledge could be the key to dismantling the deadly system.
Squid Game Season 3 boasts a powerful ensemble cast including Lee Jung-jae, Kang Ha-neul, Wi Ha-jun, and Park Gyu-young. As the final game begins, viewers are left wondering: who will survive, who will fall, and will the Squid Game finally come to an end?
