Squid Game: The Challenge will consist of 456 players competing in a series of games for the chance to win $4.56 million – but it won’t end in life or death.
Netflix announced Tuesday that it will soon launch a real-life “Squid Game” reality TV series, and it’s looking for English-speaking players to compete for a multi-million dollar prize. While the streaming platform noted that the show won’t end in life or death, Squid Game: The Challenge will consist of 456 players competing in a series of games for the chance to win $4.56 million. Netflix noted that the series will include games inspired by the original show, and players will be put to the test by forming strategies and alliances.
“Fans of the drama series are in for a fascinating and unpredictable journey as our 456 real-world contestants navigate the biggest competition series ever, full of tension and twists, with the biggest ever cash prize at the end”, Brandon Riegg, Netflix’s vice president of unscripted and documentary series, said in a statement.
