Squid Game is back on Netflix with its highly anticipated second season, but the reactions have been mixed! Fans are divided, and some are even calling it a "teaser for Season 3". So, what's going on with Squid Game 2?

On December 26, Squid Game Season 2 dropped on Netflix, continuing the intense story of Gi-hun (Lee Jung Jae) as he returns to the game for revenge, facing off against The Front Man (Lee Byung Hun). The stakes are higher, and the game is back in full swing.

Season 1 of Squid Game made a massive splash when it premiered in 2021, earning multiple awards, including Best Actor for Lee Jung Jae and Best Director for Hwang Dong Hyuk at the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards. With such huge success, many expected Season 2 to deliver, but it’s already sparking debate.

Some fans have expressed disappointment, saying that it feels more like a teaser for Season 3 rather than a full season. Critics are divided, with some praising it, while others find it lacking in certain areas.

Entertainment journalist Lama shared a positive review, saying, "Squid Game Season 2 is much crazier than the first one. The 'Dear Hunter' moment will make you feel like you're sitting on a bed of nails, and the action is intense, driven by retribution."

Ayush Sharma, a news writer for The Daily List, also praised the season, stating, "Squid Game Season 2 dives deeper into human psychology while raising the stakes. It connects thrilling action with mind games, and Lee Jung Jae’s performance is top-notch. The show has grown and improved."

However, Time magazine had a more critical take, saying, "Two out of the seven episodes are dull", and criticizing the slow pace.

They also mentioned that Squid Game 2 rehashes some of the plot points from Season 1, which made the show feel repetitive. They also pointed out that the new characters didn’t add much emotional depth and that some of the violent scenes seemed similar to what viewers had already seen.

Korean audiences also have mixed opinions, with some praising the drama and others feeling like it didn’t live up to the hype.

The mixed reactions have fans eagerly awaiting more, especially since Season 3 is already in the works! Both Seasons 2 and 3 were filmed simultaneously, and Season 3 is currently in post-production.

While there is no exact release date yet, it’s expected to drop in the first half of 2025. Fans can’t wait to see where the story goes next!
