Netflix has confirmed that Squid Game Season 3 will arrive in 2025, but a recent slip-up by Netflix Korea may have revealed the exact release date: June 27, 2025.
This would be a quick turnaround, as it took three years to get from Season 1 to Season 2.
Why the Quick Release?
Creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has explained that Season 2 and 3 were originally envisioned as one long arc.
The production of both seasons occurred simultaneously, with Season 2 ending on a cliffhanger that will be resolved in Season 3.
Netflix likely wants to capitalize on the momentum, releasing the next part quickly to satisfy fans eager for answers.
Netflix’s Strategic Content Release
The June release of Squid Game Season 3 would be followed by the final season of Stranger Things in August or October, and Wednesday Season 2 in November.
Netflix appears to be lining up its biggest shows for a massive 2025. Fans can expect Squid Game to dominate the first half of 2025, with other major shows spaced out for maximum impact.
