The Devil’s Plan Season 3 Brings Competitive Heat and New Twists

The Devil’s Plan is back for a third season, starting with a five episode premiere that wastes no time shaking things up. This time around, the show features a cast made up entirely of competition veterans. Because everyone involved has played similar games before, the strategy is sharper and the players are much better at handling betrayals and backstabs without taking things personally.

While the cast is great, the quality of the games is a bit of a mixed bag. Some challenges, like the poker and memory matchup or the tense number manipulation games, are incredibly fun to watch. However, other segments, such as a virtual stock trading game, can feel slow and repetitive. Non Korean viewers might also find the stock trading episode frustrating, as the lack of on screen translations for certain rules makes it difficult to follow the action.

Despite a few pacing issues, the downtime between challenges remains focused and professional. Instead of unnecessary drama, the contestants spend their time planning and analyzing their competition. The clever side puzzles hidden between the main games also lead to some of the best cliffhangers so far.

You can catch the first five episodes of The Devil’s Plan Season 3 on Netflix right now. If you are hooked on the strategy, mark your calendar because the next batch of episodes is set to drop on November 17, 2026.
