‘Alice in Borderland’, season 3: everything we know

‘Alice in Borderland’ could return with a season 3 to the Netflix series catalog, although there has been no official confirmation yet. The Japanese series is a huge success with the public on the streaming platform, and for this reason we would not be surprised if its renewal was announced soon. If they hurry, a third season could even be among the best series of 2023. For now, we review everything we know and the statements made by the team.

Based on Haro Aso’s manga, ‘Alice in Borderland’ began with the story of a video game obsessive who suddenly finds himself trapped with his two best friends in a parallel and dangerous version of Tokyo where they will have to compete in macabre and impossible games in order to survive. In the second season we see how the protagonists continue trying to discover the mysteries of Borderland and thus find a way to return to their reality.

Now, the games have leveled up and are now more extreme than ever. The objective? Gather all the cards in the deck. Will they get it in time? Many of these types of plots will sound familiar. For example, not long ago we began to compare ‘Alice in Borderland’ and ‘The game of the squid’: which is better? Both share dystopia and cruelty as the lowest common denominator, although there is no doubt that the Korean one has grabbed more headlines.

‘Alice in Borderland’, season 3: release date

We will have to be patient: Netflix has not yet confirmed season 3 of ‘Alice in Borderland’, and therefore there is no scheduled release date.

The slowness around this series should not surprise us too much, because after all two years passed between the first and second season. Of course, a pandemic involved, but even so we do not lose hope that the platform will give the green light to the Japanese production and we will obtain the answers to the questions that the end of the previous season left us. We will be attentive to the news.

‘Alice in Borderland, season 3: cast

The cast of ‘Alice in Borderland’ season 3 is still a mystery, although we can make some speculations based on what happened at the end of season 2. Of course, We await the return of the following characters:

If we talk about the characters, we have to talk about the problem of season 2 of ‘Alice in Borderland’ with their deaths: or, what is the same, with their non-deaths. That is why we will never be able to hold our hand in the fire about the return or not of a character, although of course Tatta (Yutaro Watanabe) has little chance of returning.

‘Alice in Borderland’, season 3: synopsis

We still don’t have an official synopsis for ‘Alice in Borderland’ season 3. However, the end of the previous season left open some avenues that will undoubtedly have to be explored in the story.

The first problem that the protagonists will have to deal with in the next season is, of course, not having reached the real world. When they thought they had made it, Arisu and company realize that they still have more battles to fight because of the joker card, which suggests that they are not in the real world.. The series will continue to explore this nightmarish world with, we are sure, many more references to the world of ‘Alice in Wonderland’.

What could happen from here in a season 3 of ‘Alice in Borderland’? It is possible that the decisions that have led them to this point will plunge them into a new and unknown game from which they will have to free themselves. New rules, new dangers. Cards have increased in difficulty as players level up, meaning the Joker now has the potential to be the cruelest of them all.. As we know, the Joker can be any card, so the possibilities are endless. Perhaps they are already regretting not accepting the offer to become citizens… But now there is no going back.
