"Gone is the rainbow-hued track of Season 2’s six-legged pentathlon; in its place, a vividly swirling flower-pattern floor ominously foreshadows the cutthroat finale to come," Netflix described. The poster also includes the sinister silhouettes of Young-hee and her companion Cheol-su, which were first hinted at in the post-credit scene of the previous season, suggesting even more brutal games on the horizon.
