Netflix has confirmed that the third season of the Japanese sci-fi thriller 'Alice in Borderland' will premiere on 25 September 2025. The series, based on the manga by Haro Aso, follows a group of people forced to compete in deadly games in an abandoned version of Tokyo.
Lead actors Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya will return as Arisu and Usagi, alongside director Shinsuke Sato. The new season will introduce several new cast members, including Hayato Isomura, Katsuya Maiguma, Koji Ohkura, and Kento Kaku, who will reportedly play a character named Ryuji.
Netflix's official synopsis reveals that after Usagi is abducted by a scholar obsessed with the afterlife, Arisu returns to the Borderland to save her. Teaming up with new players, they must face the Joker stage to find a way back to their world.
Season 2 ended with a cliffhanger, as half the main characters appeared to wake up in the real world. The Joker card, a recurring motif in promotional materials, is expected to play a key role in the upcoming season.
While Netflix has not confirmed the episode count, it is expected to be eight episodes, matching the first two seasons. Seasons 1 and 2 are currently available to stream on Netflix.
