Netflix Games' highly anticipated mobile title, Squid Game: Unleashed, finally has a release date: December 17th! A new trailer showcases the thrilling, violent gameplay awaiting players on iOS and Android.
Netflix's track record with game adaptations of its shows has been mixed. While some, like the Stranger Things pixel-art adventure, have been successful, others haven't resonated as widely. However, Squid Game: Unleashed aims to deliver a different experience.
This multiplayer battle royale pits players against friends and strangers in a recreation of the chilling death games from the original series, albeit with a more lighthearted approach. The game faithfully recreates iconic scenarios while introducing new challenges. Its release, timed just before the December 26th launch of Squid Game season two, could be a major win for Netflix. Pre-registration is open now!
CalamariThe irony of adapting a show about the dehumanization of individuals and the exploitation of their deaths for entertainment into a multiplayer game isn't lost. However, from a purely strategic standpoint, it's a logical move. This adaptation demonstrates Netflix's recognition of the potential to retain a dedicated player base through engaging multiplayer experiences, even if some viewers might not connect with all their streaming content.
While waiting for the game's release, consider checking out other recent releases. Jack Brassel's positive review of the relaxing gardening sim, Honey Grove, is worth a look.
