This new season will bring more thrilling twists and turns. Alongside Gi-hun’s mission to expose the masterminds behind the games, a fresh group of players will enter the arena, hoping to change their lives by winning new prizes.
Unlike the first season, which had nine episodes, Season 2 will feature seven episodes. Reports suggest this is because Seasons 2 and 3 were made together, with the third season set to be the final chapter of the series. Fans can look forward to the third season, expected to release worldwide in 2025, although an exact date hasn’t been announced yet.
