Squid Game: New Netflix Trailer Highlights Season 1, Teases Season 2

Netflix released a trailer for director, writer & EP Hwang Dong-hyuk's Lee Jung-jae-starring Squid Game that does a nice job bridging seasons.

Though we still have some time before the second season of director, writer & executive producer Hwang Dong-hyuk's Squid Game hits Netflix screens, there's no reason to look at that as a bad thing. For those who need a refresher, the second season will pick up three years after "Player 456" won the game – yet he remains determined to find the people behind it and put an end to their vicious sport once and for all. Using his fortune to fund his search, Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) 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's going to need to re-enter it. And for you to have a better appreciation of what's to come, Netflix is urging you to use this time to "re-enter the game" yourselves with a rewatch of the first season – and dropping a new trailer that serves as a nice tease for the second season.

With less than three months to go until the game begins again, here's a look at the rewatch trailer that was released – with Netflix's Squid Game Season 2 arriving on December 26th (with the story set to wrap up in 2025 with a third and final season):

With the series set to return on December 26th, here's a look back at the most recent teaser for Netflix's Squid Game Season 2 – as we get a look at how the sharp-suited game recruiter (Yoo) readies himself for his life-shattering work:
