Squid Game Season 3 Sets Record With 60 M Views But Misses Season 2's Opening Mark

Hyderabad: Netflix's global phenomenon Squid Game has made a strong comeback with Season 3, but despite breaking some major records, it hasn't quite matched the explosive debut of its previous season. Released on June 27, the third and final season of Squid Game pulled in an impressive 60.1 million views in just three days, making it the most-watched title of the week across all categories, English and non-English. It also achieved a historic feat by ranking #1 in 93 countries, including major markets like the US, UK, Japan, and Argentina - a record for a premiere week. However, when compared to the numbers delivered by Season 2, Season 3 fell slightly short. Season 2 had amassed 68 million views in its first four days, surpassing even the massive launch of Netflix's Wednesday (50.1 million). It's important to note that Netflix's weekly metrics run from Monday to Sunday, and Season 3 had only three days in this window, giving it less time to accumulate views. Still, the numbers are nothing short of massive.
