Alice in Borderland 3: The wait is on for Alice in Borderland enthusiasts as the show prepares to return with its third season on September 25, 2025. With excitement already running in full force, online speculation has broken out regarding the shape of the season ahead- including just how many episodes there will be and how long each will run.
Based on a leak originally posted by a Reddit user, Season 3 will be comprised of six episodes that are nearing or exceeding an hour each.
Episode 1: 61 minutes
Episode 2: 55 minutes
Episode 3: 62 minutes
Episode 4: 61 minutes
Episode 5: 77 minutes
Episode 6: 76 minutes
The last two episodes are unique with feature-length runtimes, which is an indication that the season will conclude with a longer, cinematic final episode. The fans are already guessing that these longer episodes will bring high-stakes action, emotional dividends, and perhaps surprising revelations.
Though the initial two seasons of Alice in Borderland presented a varied cast of characters- such as Chishiya, Niragi, Kuina, and Ann- Season 3 appears to constrict itself to the lead pair: Arisu and Usagi. The duo again are found trapped in the fatal games of the Borderland, struggling to survive and trying to find a means to return to reality. Their relationship and resilience are expected to take center stage as the narrative unfolds.
The shift in focus marks a new creative direction for the series. By honing in on Arisu and Usagi’s journey, the story could explore deeper emotional stakes while still delivering the tense, unpredictable challenges that have made the show a global phenomenon.
As the release date approaches, anticipation remains for how Season 3 will raise the stakes and answer hanging questions left behind by last season’s cliffhanger. With longer episodes guaranteed come the finale, fans can get set for an engaging and potentially explosive finale to this instalment of the Borderland saga.
