“Squid Game” fans ended 2024 with good news and bad news. The good news is that after three years, Netflix has finally released a second season of its South Korean thriller. The bad news is that there is still a season ahead of us and the coming season will involve a wait.

If you’re curious about when you can expect the third season of Squid Game, we’ve got you covered. Here’s everything you need to know about the final season’s premiere date, episode count, and more. This article will be updated as more information is released.

When will Squid Game Season 3 premiere?

Netflix hasn’t announced an official release date for the third season of its dystopian thriller, but we know the season will premiere sometime in 2025. Based on the fact that Season 1 debuted in September 2021 and Season 2 premiered in December 2024, one can expect this upcoming installment to release in either Fall or Winter 2025.

Will Squid Game Season 3 Be the Last?

Yes, the series is expected to end after this.

But this franchise as a whole will continue. Reality series Squid Game: The Challenge has been renewed for Season 2. There were also rumors that David Fincher might be interested in an English-language adaptation of the scripted series.

How many episodes are there in Squid Game Season 3?

That’s another unknown. Previously, Season 1 consisted of nine episodes and Season 2 consisted of seven. Series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk originally wrote Season 2 as the final episode of his series, but as his episodes became longer and longer, Hwang and Netflix decided to divide the season into two parts. With this in mind, it is unlikely that “Squid Game” season 3 will have more episodes than the previous ones.
