Picking up the gripping narrative from where Season 2 concluded, Season 3 delves deeper into the tumultuous journey of Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae) as he navigates "overwhelming despair." Meanwhile, the enigmatic Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) continues to orchestrate his sinister plans. As the stakes rise, the choices made by the surviving players lead to increasingly dire consequences with each round of the deadly games. Netflix promises that this season will "push the limits of suspense and drama," ensuring viewers remain captivated throughout.

"Gone is the rainbow-hued track of Season 2’s six-legged pentathlon; in its place, a vividly swirling flower-pattern floor ominously foreshadows the cutthroat finale to come," Netflix stated. The poster also teases the return of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su, whose silhouettes hint at even more brutal games on the horizon.
