Streaming giant Netflix announced that the sci-fi thriller series Alice In Borderland will return for a third season.

"With Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya reprising their roles as Arisu and Usagi in Season 3, fans can look forward to witnessing the evolution of their characters in the ever-dangerous landscape of Borderland," Netflix said in a media release.

"Shinsuke Sato's continued direction will also ensure that the series maintains its trademark intensity and cinematic excellence," the streaming platform added.

Alice in Borderland chronicles Arisu's journey as he finds himself thrust into an alternate realm, where his survival depends on his ability to engage in and emerge victorious from a series of games. These games are categorized into four distinct groups, each symbolized by the suits found in a standard deck of playing cards.

The series is based on the manga of Haro Aso.  

According to Netflix, the first season of the series landed in the Top 10 of more than 70 countries. Meanwhile, for its second season, the series made it to the Top 10 of more than 90 countries.

In a previous interview with GamerBraves, lead actor Kento shared his thoughts on being part of the two seasons of the series.

"Manga is something that Japan as a culture is proud of. Nowadays there are a lot of live-action manga adaptations that are seen by a large global audience and I am very proud of that," he said.

When asked why Alice in Borderland is definitely a must-watch for those who are yet to catch up on the series, he replied, "I think it is a story that is enjoyable and accessible to many different kinds of people. In Season 1, we worked on a set based on the Shibuya scramble and it was really quite something to see."

He continued: "That Scramble unmanned, without any of the people, when it’s usually bustling all the time. It’s that kind of quality that we’re bringing to you with a story that is staged in Japan. So visually, I think it’s going to be very impactful."

"As for the contents of the games, it’s really a matter of life and death for the players. It might be a little frightful for some viewers but the stakes do have to be high in these games. That makes them much more interesting so I think you can enjoy it from that vantage point as well."
