What do we know about Squid Game Season 3's recently revealed game? Details explored  

After Season 2, fans are already waiting for Squid Game Season 3, which does not have a release date as of yet. After a wait of almost three years, Squid Game Season 2 returned for just seven episodes, and the show will conclude with a third season.

While Season 2 featured many new games like Spinning Top, ggongi, Mingle, Jegichagi, and Flying Stone, the fans were given a sneak peek into Squid Game Season 3's most exciting game featuring the iconic Young-Hee doll.

Season 2 Episode 7 includes a post-credit scene that introduces a new male doll and a potential game for Season 3. According to reports, the new game can feature both the dolls Young-hee and Cheol-su, working together.

Here is everything you need to know about this post-credit scene and possible theories about Squid Game Season 3's most exciting game.

Was Season 2 post-credits scene about a potential new game in Squid Game Season 3?

The post-credit scene just before the Season 2 credits is so brief that you might miss it in the blink of an eye. It gives a sneak peek at what can be assumed as a new game in Squid Game Season 3, as it features the iconic Young-Hee doll.

But this time, she is not alone, as the scene also introduces Cheol-su, a giant male robot doll, just like its female counterpart. In the scene, players 096, 100, and 353 enter a new play area where the two dolls are standing in what looks like facing one another. Lastly, the scene ends with a flashing Green Light and Red Light before the credits start to roll.

Netflix formally introduced Cheol-Su through Instagram and creator Hwang Dong-hyuk also teased the upcoming game in Squid Game Season 3,

"That's actually a [sneak peek] of Cheol-su, who, like Young-hee, is a new giant doll that we're going to be showcasing in season 3... And that's also a hint at the most exciting game in season 3 as well. So, while it hasn't been shared yet, I hope everyone will be excited to meet Cheol-su and the new game."

Exploring Reddit theories about Squid Game Season 3 new game

Since the Young-Hee doll is an iconography from the Red Light, Green Light game, one of the most obvious possibilities is that Squid Game Season 3 will feature this iconic game again.

But since players have played this game once in Season 2, they might include a reimagined or a different version in Squid Game Season 3. Season 2 Episode 1 also included reimagined versions of Rock, paper, and Scissors with Minus One and Russian Roullete.

This Reddit user's theory does make sense because Gi-hun did talk about this loophole in Season 2, Episode 1, where he made a human chain with players because the doll cannot detect their back movements. It might be possible that she be given a partner in Season 3, who will also help her keep track of back movements.

Another user, u/krokendil commented that the game would be 'Jack and Jill'. This also makes sense, and the dolls could be the Korean Jack and Jill from the famous children's rhyme where the players have to roll a colored die and spin the wheel. If the wheel lands on a well, they pass, but if the wheel lands on the bucket, they lose (meaning death in the show's universe)

While all these possibilities have solid thinking, fans would have to wait for Season 3, which will be released in 2025, to see what the game actually is.
