Squid Game by Netflix has done it once more! The third and last season of the well-liked Korean show gained a staggering 60.1 million views in its first three days of release, placing it at the top of the streamer's weekly Top 10 list.

According to Netflix data cited in a Variety article, the thriller's third season is now the most watched non-English television program on Netflix ever, based on a three-day period. The show began on a Friday, which is noteworthy since it only had three days' worth of audience data during Netflix's Monday-to-Sunday reporting cycle.

In contrast, Season 2 debuted on Thursday, December 26, allowing it four days to rack up views. With 68 million views during its first week, it shattered all previous records, even surpassing Wednesday in 2022, which held the previous record with 50.1 million views.

The last conflict in the deadly Squid Game, where Gi-hun attempts to put an end to it, is the subject of the series.

Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) tries to break the lethal contest from inside in Squid Game Season 3, defying the evil Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) and attempting to demonstrate that humanity can overcome savagery.


In its first weekend, Season 3 attracted 60.1 million viewers.

Despite having just three days of data, Season 3 had a stronger debut than the majority of Netflix's worldwide hits, and it quickly rose through the ranks of the platform's most popular non-English titles. It's possible that it may climb even higher in the coming days.

The Squid Game craze started in 2021 with its debut season, which, according to Variety, is still the most popular show on Netflix. In its first 28 days, it has amassed more than 16.5 billion viewing hours. Since then, the franchise has grown to include the reality competition spin-off Squid Game: The Challenge, as well as a worldwide cultural influence that has revolutionized the streaming industry for Korean material.
