What to expect from Squid Game 2?
The second season is expected to continue where the first ended, with Gi-hun winning. Instead of accepting the cash and travelling to the United States, he remains in Korea and returns to the game. In the Season 1 climax, he receives another offer to participate in the secret survival game, which he tactically accepts with a fresh resolution.
Netflix has recently announced the second and third seasons of Squid Game. The second portion will be released in December of this year, with the last instalment scheduled for 2025. In a letter to all fans, director Hwang Dong Hyuk said, "Seong Gi-hun, who vowed revenge at the end of Season 1, returns and rejoins the game." Will he succeed in exacting his revenge? Front Man isn't an easy opponent this time around. The intense conflict between their two universes will continue throughout Season 3, the series conclusion."
