“Squid Game: The Challenge is set to premiere on Netflix on November 22, 2023, and fans won’t have to

wait much longer to dive into the highly anticipated second season. Despite the excitement, it was

revealed at last year’s Critics Choice Awards that the script for season two hasn’t been written yet. The

show’s creator, who remains tight-lipped about the details, cryptically mentioned that the ideas for the

Next season is brewing in his mind, saying, ‘It’s here. Not on the page, it’s here,’ while pointing to his

head. He did drop a hint that Seong Gi-hun, played by Jung-jae, will make a comeback and play a

significant role in the world.

The journey of “Squid Game” began in 2019 when it was first announced, and it took two more years for

filming and production to wrap up. This timeline suggests that fans might have to wait until 2023 or even

2024 for the second season to hit their screens.

might require more time to film compared to the first season due to its expanded scope and scale.

“Anyways, ‘Squid Game 2’ will begin filming in the summer and the filming will likely last for about 10

months. We were working on season 1 for about 10 months as well, but that was with delays caused by

COVID-19. But seeing as season 2 will be bigger in scale, it will probably take longer to complete.”
