Squid Game season 2 excels in some ways and not in others, fattened up with what feels like filler content, which is not great for a season only seven episodes long.

While there’s no specific date set, fans can expect Season 3 to start streaming sometime in 2025, according to Netflix. Hwang told Entertainment Weekly that he originally envisioned Season 2 and Season 3 as “a single story” but chose to split it into two separate seasons after realizing just how many episodes he needed to wrap up the saga.

Squid Game's creator and stars break down what went into creating Season 2, a production that lasted a challenging year.
