Squid Game Season 3 is set to be the final part of the intense South Korean survival drama, coming to Netflix on June 27, 2025. Returning actors include Lee Jung-jae as Gi-hun, Lee Byung-hun as the Front Man, Wi Ha-joon as Jun-ho, and others like Im Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, and Park Sung-hoon.
If you haven’t watched the series, skip the next part. This last season starts after Season 2’s big cliffhanger, focusing on Seong Gi-hun (Player 456), who’s now set on stopping the deadly games. Fans can look forward to a darker, more mind-twisting story as Gi-hun, changed by loss and setbacks, takes on the Front Man and new obstacles.

The story will dive into Gi-hun’s decisions as he faces hopelessness, with the games getting tougher and riskier. Creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has hinted at a creepy, dreamlike feel, with the famous dolls Young-hee and Chul-su pointing to grim new games. This season plans to finish Gi-hun’s story, though spin-offs might grow the world later.
Lee Jung-jae said the final game was the hardest to film, leading some to guess it might be the “Squid Game” itself again, putting Gi-hun in a tough, skill-based fight—maybe his best chance to survive. Besides Young-hee and Chul-su being part of it, leaks hint at a game based on Korean folklore, mixing creepy psychological horror with physical tasks. The set designs are said to be fancier, with one game happening in a maze-like structure that changes as you play.
Filming finished in late 2024, with over 70% of the scenes shot in South Korea’s biggest studio complex to create realistic sets. Hwang used AI-assisted storyboarding for complex sequences, a first for the series, to visualize the surreal aesthetic. Netflix plans a global simulcast on June 27, 2025, with dubbed and subtitled versions in over 30 languages. A behind-the-scenes documentary, “Squid Game: The End,” will drop post-finale, detailing the trilogy’s creation.
Did you know that Hwang Dong-hyuk wrote the original Squid Game script way back in 2009? That’s right, he was inspired by his own financial struggles and South Korea’s 1997 economic crisis. He pitched it for a decade before Netflix greenlit it in 2019.
