Second seasons are hard. Great TV shows establish familiar rhythms and ensemble chemistry in their initial runs that then gets uprooted and can take time to reestablish. At least with Squid Game, the Netflix hit has the luxury of returning to a sadistic premise that structured its first batch of episodes.

Squid Game Season 2 is getting closer by the day. We've already had a teaser, and a longer teaser, and now we've got the first official trailer — and it comes with our best glimpse yet at one of the new games Player 456 ( Lee Jung-jae) will have to survive during his second round in the titular competition.

Netflix released the first official trailer for Squid Game season 2 and things are going to get darker and more dangerous for everyone.
