Squid Game Season 3 receives new trailer, 'It's time to play the final games'
ALBAWABA - Amid its June 27 release, Squid Game Season 3 just received a new gripping trailer showcasing a snippet of what fans should expect from the third season of Netflix's most anticipated K-drama. The renowned streaming service took to its socials and wrote to promote the upcoming sequel, "It's time to play the final games. Squid Game Season 3. June 27, only on Netflix." A fan took to Musk's X (formerly known as Twitter) and wrote in excitement, "THIS IS SOO GOOD I CAN'T WAIT." Another added, "STOP SOME OF THESE CLIPS ARE SCARING ME, WHAT IS GONNA HAPPEN." Caution: Spoilers ahead. Squid Game Season 3 receives a new trailer, 'It's time to play the final games' Squid Game season 3 will pick up from where season 2 left off, right after 'Young-il' betrayed his armed rebellion group by killing two allied players, executing those who surrendered, and then proceeded to kill Gi-hun's best friend, Jung-bae, in front of his eyes. While Gi-hun is yet to learn that his new "friend" Young-il is none other than the notorious masked Front Man (Hwang In-ho), fans hope that his identity is revealed at the beginning of season 3. A fan wrote on social media, "It will be interesting to see how Gi-hun picks himself up after experiencing such a traumatic event, especially after finding out that Young-il is the Front Man and is the culprit behind killing his best friend." (Squid Game: Season 3 | Official Teaser | Netflix) This will be the third and final season of Netflix's beloved K-drama. If you are searching for something to scratch the itch for dystopian survival thriller shows, we highly recommend giving Netflix's live-action adaptation of the Japanese manga 'Alice in Borderland' a watch. It's as gripping and intense as Squid Game and offers enough differences to make it stand out from similar shows in the genre.
