The games are afoot once again. Netflix just announced that Squid Game season two will arrive December 26, with the third and final season following soon after in 2025.

“Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 remains determined to find the people behind the game and put an end to their vicious sport,” the press release reads. “Using this fortune to fund his search, Gi-hun starts with the most obvious of places: look for the man in a sharp suit playing ddakji in the subway. But when his efforts finally yield results, the path toward taking down the organization proves to be deadlier than he imagined: to end the game, he needs to re-enter it.”

The news was announced with the following video as well as a heartfelt letter to the fans from Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk. Read that below.
