Fri Jan 31 05:10:00 IST 2025: ## Squid Game Season 3 Confirmed for June 27th Release
**Seoul, South Korea** – Netflix has officially announced the release date for the highly anticipated third season of the global phenomenon, *Squid Game*. The dystopian thriller will premiere on June 27th, almost a month after the controversial release of Season 2 on December 26th.
The announcement, made via a post on X (formerly Twitter), followed a leaked teaser video on Netflix Korea’s YouTube channel. The since-deleted video, featuring the iconic robot Young-hee, mistakenly revealed the June 27th release date. Initial reports suggested a 2025 release, but Netflix has confirmed the earlier date.
The first season of *Squid Game*, released in September 2021, became a global sensation, generating an estimated $900 million in revenue for Netflix and breaking streaming records. While Season 2’s reception was more mixed, with some criticizing its perceived rushed production, anticipation remains high for the concluding chapter.
Social media reactions to the Season 3 announcement have been varied, ranging from enthusiastic excitement to skepticism about the quality of the upcoming season, given the recent controversies surrounding Season 2. Regardless of the opinions, the intense global fanbase is clearly eager to see how the story concludes.
