Writing about the new events, Netflix wrote, “Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 gave up going to the States and comes back with a new resolution in his mind.

Netizens' reaction the trailer of Squid Games Season 2

One fan wrote, “The "ONE MORE GAME!" chant has given me chills even after one watch of the trailer. It made me realize that Gi Hun is a gambling addict and it's why he was invited to play before since he was a nobody. Now he's not here because he wishes to win the prize, he wants to help the people struggling who were in a status similar to his.” 
 
“I appreciate the idea of Gi-hun stepping into a leadership role and guiding the players as a mentor," another fan added. 
 
Some fans can’t hide their excitement for the new season, with one saying “There are no words to describe how HYPED I am for season 2”. 
 
“The game will not end unless the world changes," stated another. This line is unfortunately true, the Squid Games aren't just within the island, they're everywhere and exist amongst us.” 
 
“Can't wait to be traumatised again.” 
 
“I just know this season will be intense. Can't wait to watch it.” 
 
“Crumbs of Gyu, his character is a mystery”.
