Netflix has announced a clever marketing plan by launching a mobile game titled “Squid Game: Unleashed.” The game will be available for free to everyone, with no subscription required. This move is also part of the company’s act of generosity during the holiday season.
Squid Game: Unleashed will be available from December 17, 2024 and gives fans the chance to experience the thrill of the deadly competition made famous by the popular drama series.
Through The Game Awards event, Netflix revealed that the game is initially only available to Netflix subscription users. But it will be open at no cost for a limited period.
About Squid Game: Unleashed
The game features a multiplayer battle royale theme that incorporates iconic challenges from the Squid Game series. There will be several new games inspired by classic childhood activities.
According to the description on the game’s website, “Each round is a dark journey into memories that have been lost,” which gives the typical feel of an event full of suspense and surprises.
Players can now pre-register for exclusive skins that can be used in competitions. Squid Game: Unleashed also brings a number of new features that set it apart from the previous series. These include the ability for players to use tools such as bat and ball.
One of the most famous challenges, Glass Bridge, will undergo changes. In this update, it allows all players to cross the bridge simultaneously. Unlike the previous format which separated players individually.
In addition, a large piggy bank hanging by a chain will be an additional obstacle that is quite challenging to traverse.
Alain Tascan, President of Games at Netflix, mentioned that Squid Game Unleashed allows players to compete or team up with their friends, while enjoying the exciting challenges of the series.
As Squid Game’s second season premieres on December 26, 2024, fans can watch the first season. Then experience the thrill of competing head-to-head in this challenging game.
