Squid Game Season 3 reappears Contestant 456 in the waiting room for another round
Get ready to dive back into the grueling world of Gi-hun and the Squid Game! After the heartbreaking consequences of his last rebellion, our beloved Player 456 is back and determined to take down the games for good.
With summer just around the corner, we'll finally get to see how this batshit insane story unfolds on June 27, 2025 (unofficial release date, so take it with a grain of salt or a handful of sea salt). Check out the teaser below:

The teaser doesn't hold back any punches, showcasing some alarming and perhaps tear-inducing details. We catch a glimpse of a new game, where players, presumably, are forced to compete using those gigantic capsule machines you'd find at amusement parks. Geum-ja, the sweet (but not really) mom from the original series, winds up with a red ball, leaving her son Yong-sik in the blue team. Yikes!
Other troublemakers making a comeback include the dickish wealthy masked viewers, who, despite funding the whole operation, only seem to appear at the end of the games. But the real villain? The Front Man, the enigmatic overseer of the games, who shockingly made a surprising appearance within the rebellion in disguise last season. Lee Byung-hun, we've missed you.
The teaser ends with a baby's cries, leaving us guessing whether our favorite pregnant character Park Mi-yeong survived the games and managed to give birth to a new life in the worst adult daycare center on Earth.

My love for survival games and a peculiar fascination with the inner lives of NPCs keeps me up at night. And I can't resist dabbling in offbeat simulation games, mods, or crafting my own stories within the confines of RPGs.
