The winner of Squid Game season 3 is Jun-hee’s newborn baby, Player 222, who is declared the final victor of the games.

Who wins Squid Game season 3?

  • The official winner is Jun-hee’s baby (Player 222) , introduced earlier in the season.
  • In the final game, Gi-hun sacrifices himself by jumping from the tower, which leaves the baby as the last “player” and automatic winner.
  • The prize money is effectively assigned to the child, who becomes the symbolic “real” winner of the entire competition.

How the ending is framed

  • The last game, called Sky Squid Game , uses three towers (square, triangle, circle) where players must knock opponents off while activating ground buttons to make deaths count.
  • All other contestants from the original group die during the brutal sequence of games, including Gi-hun, who chooses a self-sacrificial ending.
  • After a time jump, Jun-ho finds the baby along with access to the game’s money, showing who truly survives with the prize.

Why the baby was chosen to win

  • Creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has said he made the baby win to serve as a symbol of hope, humanity, and conscience for Gi-hun in an otherwise dark world.
  • The decision underlines the idea that even in a rigged, violent system, a purely innocent life can carry forward the possibility of something better.
