Squid Game, the series that took over the world, is coming back for the much-anticipated second season. Following the release of the show's official teaser, the production team dropped a mysterious picture and asked fans for their theories regarding the same. Avid followers of the show have started brainstorming to find out the meaning behind the image.
On September 20, 2024, Squid Game 2’s social media page posted a picture, asking fans about their theories on it. The still is from a scene of the upcoming series where the participants can be seen preparing for one of their quintessential games. The image shows a large playground with two vibrant, rainbow-colored tracks curving around an open courtyard. A group of people dressed in green tracksuits are entering from the center, while several guards in pink jumpsuits stand around the perimeter, watching.
Some fans replied to the post, offering their theories about the image. One of the predictions that particularly stood out was that the players would be made to play dodgeball but with a twist. Every time one of the contestants is hit with the ball, they will be brutally killed by the guards.
