Netflix has teased violent new challenges for Squid Game's second season.

The popular Korean drama is set to return to our screens later this year (December 26), and will follow season one winner Seong Gi-hun as he dons his original Player 456 tracksuit and re-enters the risky game.

The special teaser trailer begins with a panicked Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) as he comes face-to-face with the sinister Front Man (Lee Byung-hun). He nervously points a gun at the masked figure.

"Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 gave up going to the states and comes back with a new resolution in his mind," reads the description.

"Gi-hun once again dives into the mysterious survival game, starting another life-or-death game with new participants gathered to win the prize of 45.6 billion won."

The trailer also sees the return of the eerie Masked Men, wielding their own guns as they oversee the life-or-death tournament. "The game will not stop," reads the on-screen text. "Are you ready?"

Bullets fire rapidly and enormous flames rage, while the clock ticks in an ominous countdown. With a whole lot of money at stake, what will be the outcome of this season's deadly game?

Emmy Award winner Hwang Dong-hyuk will continue to serve as director, writer and producer on the series, with Wi Ha-joon (Jun-ho) and Gong Yoo (the Salesman) reprising their roles.

Meanwhile, the second season will also welcome some new players, including It's Okay Not to Be Okay's Park Gyu-young, singer Jo Yu-ri, Kang Ae-sim, and Itaewon Class' Lee David.

Squid Game season 2 premieres on December 26, streaming on Netflix. A third and final season has been confirmed. Squid Game: The Challenge will also return for a second season.

"We changed our baby's name after two months - it didn't suit her"
A couple decided to change their daughter's name after two months - because they found it was "hard" to say their initial choice. Ava Kennedy, 24, and her husband, John Kennedy, 25, called their daughter, Lila Charm, after struggling to make a decision throughout her pregnancy. But the couple started to find it "hard" to call her Lila as they felt it didn't suit her but were "nervous" to admit it to each other. After two months Ava finally blurted out that she wasn't sure about the name and felt they should change it to Marigold - the other name the couple had picked out. John, a designer, immediately agreed and the pair went to change her name the very next day.
