Netflix’s dystopian survival thriller “Squid Game” Season 3 emerged as the top international title among Indian streaming audiences in the first half of 2025, ranking fifth overall with 16.5 million viewers,

Netflix has confirmed the start date for the second season of Squid Game: The Challenge. The reality TV show, which sees 456 contestants (much like the TV show) take on various challenges in a bid to win a life-changing sum of money, is heading back to our screens, and it's only a few months away.

So how could it be completely blanked in Season 2? Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria was wondering the same thing.
