Netflix Games' highly anticipated Squid Game: Unleashed mobile game finally has a release date! A new trailer showcases the bloody action players can expect.
Squid Game: Unleashed launches on iOS and Android December 17th.
Netflix's track record with adaptations of its original series is mixed. While some, like the Stranger Things pixel-art adventure, have been successful, others haven't resonated as well. However, Squid Game: Unleashed, arriving December 17th, promises a more action-packed experience.
This multiplayer game throws players into the brutal Squid Game death matches, adding a layer of humorous absurdity. Whether this approach works depends on individual preferences, but it clearly leverages the original show's immense popularity.
Featuring classic Squid Game scenarios and new additions, Squid Game: Unleashed could be a major win for Netflix. Its release just before Season 2 of the show (December 26th) is strategic. Pre-registration is available now!
CalamariThe irony of a show about the dehumanization and exploitation of individuals being adapted into a multiplayer battle game is undeniable. However, from a purely objective standpoint, it's a logical move. Netflix seems to have realized that engaging multiplayer experiences can retain users, even if they aren't interested in all their streaming content.
In the meantime, consider checking out other recent releases, such as the relaxing gardening simulator Honey Grove, which received a positive review from Jack Brassel.
