Now, let’s talk about the phenomenon that is Squid Game. The show has taken the world by storm, and Netflix knows it. So much so that the reality TV competition based on the hit series has been a wild success. And guess what? There’s a game based on Squid Game in the works. Yes, you heard that right! You’ll get to compete with other players in games straight out of the series. Get ready to dodge, strategize, and survive!

Speaking of Squid Game, the reality TV version is getting a second season, as recently confirmed by Brandon Rigg, Netflix VP of nonfiction. According to Rigg, the decision to greenlight season two of Squid Game: The Challenge was a no-brainer. They’re ramping up the competition and taking it to the next level. Prepare for more intense challenges, nail-biting moments, and hopefully, less squid.
