The first five episodes of ‘Squid Game: The Challenge’ have dropped on Netflix.
It’s a reality show based on the hugely popular ‘Squid Game’ series.
It pits 456 people against each other for $4.56 million, which is the largest single cash prize in reality TV and game show history.
However, unlike the series that inspired it, the reality show doesn’t have any deadly consequences for unsuccessful contestants.
There are 10 episodes in all, with the last five to be released on a yet to be determined date.
‘Squid Game: The Challenge’ isn’t the only opportunity for people to try Squid Game-like events.
Netflix just opened up ticket sales for ‘Squid Game: The Trials’, which is an “immersive experience” in Los Angeles, where persons can try a VR experience called Squid Game Virtuals.
Netflix is also working on a second season of the main ‘Squid Game’ series.
There is no release date yet.
