The Squid Games are just getting started.
In the full trailer for the third and final season of Netflixs hit series, protagonist Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae)is back in the games after the failed rebellion that ended season two. This time, the stakes are raised and the competition in the very deadly games is even more deadly.
The season three trailer, released Saturday at Netflixs Tudum fan event, shows Gi-hun questioning the games powers: Why didnt you kill me? Why did you keep me alive? Why did you let me live? he screams. It also shows players making their way through a disorienting maze and playing a deadly game of jump rope before Gi-hun comes face to face with the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun). Watch it below.

Viewers go back into the games with Gi-hun, Player 456, on June 27 when all episodes drop on Netflix. An episode count has not yet been announced, though six has been reported.
Season two had ended on the devastating cliffhangerof the games being incomplete and Gi-hun and his subordinates once again being held captive.
