When we last saw Gi-hun, also known as Player 456, he'd rejoined the gladiatorial Squid Game and sparked a rebellion to shut it down for good. Surprise, surprise: his uprising failed, and in the teaser for Squid Game Season 3 we see Gi-hun respawn in the lobby for one more round.

The teaser for Squid Game Season 3 doesn’t open with a bang. It ends with a cry. A baby’s distorted wail cuts through the final seconds of it like a glitch in the matrix, a fragile sound in a world too cold to care. Absence of gore, silence, and masked killers. Just that echo remains. Still, it could be the scariest thing the show has ever shown.

"Squid Game" began as a pandemic-era hit, premiering in September 2021. The dystopian survival thriller quickly broke streaming records to become one of the most popular shows on Netflix. It has since spawned the reality TV show "Squid Game: The Challenge" as well as the video game "Squid Game: Unleashed".
