Squid Game Season 2 Teaser Warns: There Is No Stopping The Game

Hitting Netflix on December 26th, check out the newest teaser for series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk's Lee Jung-jae-starring Squid Game Season 2.

If you're a fan of director, writer & executive producer Hwang Dong-hyuk's Squid Game, then you know that December 26th is a very big day. That's when the second season of the global hit series kicks off (with a third and final season set for 2025 – and rumblings of a U.S.-based spinoff from David Fincher). When the series returns, it will have been three years since "Player 456" won the game – yet he remains determined to find those 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: looking 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 the game.

"If Season 1 was about the story of Gi-hun [Lee], or player no. 456, entering Squid Game for the first time and about how he survives and leaves the game as a winner, Season 2 is going to be about Gi-hun [being] faced with his memories of the first game – the experiences of going through a new realization and awakening and returning once again to the game in order to stop this unjust game," Dong-hyuk shared earlier today during an interview with Variety in support of the series during this week's Lucca Comics and Games event in Italy. Now, here's our latest look at where "The Game" is taking us this time around… an official teaser followed by a new image gallery:
