Squid Game Season 3 is already receiving a lot of attention. Following the shocking ending of Season 2, a full-scale survival competition begins in Season 3.
In particular, various inferences are being made based on information from recently released trailers and leaked videos, including estimates of the main game and ending, and even predictions of the winner.
In this article, we break down the key spoilers for Season 3 by game type, and present the most compelling analysis of the winner and ending.
1. Squid Game 3 Game Types Summary
Squid Game Season 3 consists of a total of 4 games, starting with the special game (weeding out) that continues from Season 2 and gradually developing into a survival game with higher difficulty. Psychological warfare, team play, and individual survival strategies are reflected more strongly than in previous seasons, giving viewers extreme tension.
1) Special Game: Weeding out → Rebellion (Hero Play)
This game connects the end of Season 2 and the beginning of Season 3, and 58 out of 95 participants survived, recording a survival rate of 61.05%.
Gameplay: A structure where participants compete for survival using weapons and items without any set rules.
Characteristics: Divided into the red team (offensive team) and the blue team (defensive team), and the roles and elimination conditions are different for each team.
Results: There are many strategic elements such as finding keys to escape or subduing with weapons, and group actions such as rebellion/alliance occur.
2) Stage 4: Tag (Battle Royale Team Match)
This is a full-fledged team battle style game that was featured in the official trailer and leaked footage from March 2025.
- red team The silver team is an attacking force, carrying weapons such as daggers and stopping the blue team.
- Blue team The Silver Team is a defensive team with no weapons, but can find keys to escape or steal the Red Team's weapons to fight back.
The gameplay is similar to the online game 'Dead by Daylight', and if the blue team fails to escape within the time limit, the entire team is eliminated. If the team succeeds in escaping, the same number of red team members are eliminated.
In the trailer, the red team appears to include #124 Nam Gyu, #125 Park Min Soo, #149 Jang Geum Ja, #222 Kim Jun Hee, and #456 Seong Ki Hoon. Some of them are still alive in Stage 5, so it is assumed that they were not completely wiped out.
In particular, Yong-sik (No. 007) and Geum-ja (No. 149) belong to different teams, and a tragic development is hinted at through the scene where Geum-ja cries.
3) 5-step game: Individual jump rope (little kid, little kid)
A fall game based on the nursery rhyme, "Hey, Hey, Hey." Participants jump rope on a narrow railroad track, and if they trip on the rope, they fall down and are eliminated.
- The visual horror is more intense than Season 1's tightrope walk, with the corpse clearly visible on the floor.
- Scenes from this game are featured heavily in the Season 2 Cookie trailer and main trailer.
- There is no clear number of participants, but the number of participants is more than 13 → It is estimated that there are 4 to 8 survivors.
- The difficulty level is very high, and it is interpreted that in addition to simple rope jumping, you must precisely match your movements to pass the structure.
Based on the number of participant beds, etc., it is estimated that there will be up to 8 survivors after the game ends.
4) Stage 6 Game: Unreleased Final Game
It is presumed to be the final match of Season 1's 'Squid Game'. The exact details have not been revealed, but a dramatic turn is expected.
- Expected method : Final choice regarding prize money or possibility of 1:1 match.
- characteristic : It could be a direct confrontation between the frontman and Sung Ki-hoon, or it could be a development that shakes the game system itself.
2. Predict the winner and survivor of Squid Game 3
Based on the information on the main survivors and dropouts that have appeared in the trailer so far, it is estimated that between 4 and 8 people have passed the 5th stage. In particular, the survival of Min-soo, Sung-ki-hoon, and Jang Geum-ja is highly likely, and it seems likely that they will advance to the 6th stage finals.
In Sung Ki-hoon's case, as the winner of Season 1, he is likely to survive until the end, and he is expected to be a character who will influence the ending of the entire season through a direct confrontation with the frontman.
3. Squid Game 3 Ending Prediction Points
There are three possible ending scenarios:
|
- The final confrontation between Sung Ki-hoon and the frontman → A revenge for the old work and a symbol of destruction of the system. - A development where the system itself collapses due to internal rebellion among the participants.
|
Based on the tone of the trailer and interviews with the production team, this season is likely to have a stronger message that is critical of the existence of games and systems, rather than simply determining a winner.
