‘Alice In Borderland’ Season 3: First Look Unveiled, Coming Sooner Than Expected
Alice In Borderland has become one of the most popular Japanese shows on Netflix, gaining worldwide recognition for its intense storyline and gripping performances.
With two successful seasons, the show has built a loyal fanbase. Now, after much anticipation, Netflix has officially unveiled the first look of Alice In Borderland Season 3, and it’s arriving sooner than expected.
Netflix Announces Alice In Borderland Season 3
Netflix India confirmed the return of Alice In Borderland for a third season with the post: “Wahi bachega, jo-ker dikhaega. Alice in Borderland officially returns for a Season 3, coming soon, only on Netflix.”
While the official release date has not been announced, the series is set to return in September 2025. Fans can expect Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya to reprise their roles as Arisu and Usagi.
Recap of Season 2’s Cliffhanger
The story of Alice In Borderland follows Arisu, who is transported to a parallel version of Tokyo, where he must play deadly games to survive. These games are categorized into four types, each represented by a suit in a deck of playing cards.
At the end of Season 2, it appeared that everyone had returned to the real world after Arisu completed the final game.
The show revealed that a meteor had struck Tokyo, causing some individuals to be transported to this mysterious world. Those who survived the games were brought back to reality.
However, the shocking appearance of the Joker card at the very end hinted that the game was far from over.
First Look at Alice In Borderland Season 3
Alice In Borderland has recently been trending in India’s Netflix Top 10, especially after the release of Squid Game Season 2. The show stars Nijirō Murakami, Ayaka Miyoshi, Aya Asahina, and Dori Sakurada in significant roles.
Netflix teased the upcoming season with a cryptic post: “You’re not ready for the final game.”
Accompanying the announcement was an image of three figures standing on a rooftop, staring at a massive Joker card in the sky. This visual callback to the end of Season 2 suggests that a new and powerful force is now in control.
What to Expect from Season 3
A sneak peek released by Netflix’s Japan division provided more clues about the upcoming season. Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya return as Arisu and Usagi, respectively.
The teaser features a chilling voiceover saying, “Won’t you return to that beautiful world?”
This is followed by fast-paced clips of explosions, train crashes, and a tense moment where Arisu states, “We’ve cleared all the games of the card suits, but the Joker is the only one whom we haven’t fought.”
Although Season 2 covered the original manga’s entire storyline, the third season will introduce new twists beyond the source material.
The show’s creators are expected to expand the narrative while maintaining the suspense and action that fans love.
