The wait is almost over for fans of the global phenomenon Squid Game, as Netflix has announced that the teaser for the highly anticipated third and final season will be released tomorrow, May 5, 2025. The official Squid Game X account shared the exciting news late Sunday evening, sending fans into a frenzy with a cryptic image and the promise of a thrilling sneak peek.
The post, which has already garnered significant attention, features Jo Yu-ri holding an envelope stamped with the iconic Squid Game symbols—circle, triangle, and square—while a mannequin dressed in the show’s signature green tracksuit stands in the background. The caption reads, “Smile, we have something special for you. Squid Game Season 3 Teaser tomorrow. 😊,” accompanied by a link to the post on X. The image, branded with the Netflix logo, hints at the return of the deadly games that have captivated audiences worldwide since the series premiered in 2021.
Squid Game, created by South Korean writer and director Hwang Dong-hyuk, became Netflix’s most-watched non-English language series with its first season, drawing in viewers with its chilling premise of 456 desperate players competing in deadly children’s games for a massive cash prize. The second season, which aired earlier, set the stage for an even darker continuation, and now, with the third season confirmed as the finale, fans are eager to see how the story of protagonist Seong Gi-hun and the sinister game concludes.
As Hwang previously revealed to Variety, Squid Game Season 3 will explore Gi-hun’s transformation as he faces a “very critical crossroads,” while also delving into the backstory of the Front Man, Hwang In-ho, and introducing new elements like Cheol-su, the “boyfriend” of the infamous giant robot doll Young-hee. The season is set to premiere on June 27, 2025, and the teaser drop tomorrow is expected to offer the first glimpse into the final chapter of this dystopian saga.
Additionally, fans can look forward to more Squid Game Season 3 updates at Netflix’s upcoming Tudum 2025 event, scheduled for May 31, 2025, where the series will have a presence just weeks before its premiere
