Squid Game: The Challenge trailer brings the hit Netflix series to real life

October 23, 2023 by EJ Moreno

Would you enter the Squid Game? That’s the question presented to 456 real people as they enter a reality competition version of the iconic Netflix series.

Squid Game: The Challenge is a wild competition show unlike any other, inspired by the now-iconic Korean series of the same name. Four hundred fifty-six people will be against each other in a tournament featuring some familiar games for a massive prize of $4.56 million.

While the series will obviously feature non-fatal eliminations, the series has not been without its controversy. There were claims from some contestants about how grueling the challenges were during their time on the show, and that’s seemingly reflected in the trailer. “This is a savage game,” one contestant exclaims in the trailer.

Check out the official trailer and poster for Squid Game: The Challenge below…

“As they compete through a series of games inspired by the original show — plus surprising new additions — their strategies, alliances, and character will be put to the test while competitors are eliminated around them.”

Squid Game: The Challenge is ten episodes and will premiere on November 22nd.
