Netflix Games is set to release Squid Game: Unleashed, its new multiplayer action game inspired by the wildly popular Korean drama. The official release date is December 17, but this time, for a limited time, the game will free for everyone, including non-Netflix subscribers, marking a bold move to expand Netflix’s gaming reach. Players will compete through intense minigames inspired by the deadly contests in the series, where survival is the ultimate goal.
Unlike many free-to-play games, Squid Game: Unleashed will remain ad-free and devoid of in-app purchases, a welcome change for gamers weary of microtransactions. Pre-registration is now open on the official website, offering participants the chance to secure exclusive in-game clothing. With its fast-paced blend of cooperation and betrayal, Unleashed delivers a brutal twist on games like Fall Guys, immersing players in the show’s nerve-wracking world.
Netflix’s decision to open access to non-members is both surprising and strategic. The launch coincides with growing excitement for Squid Game’s second season, showcasing the streaming giant’s knack for tying its gaming ventures to its media hits. The app pages are up now: you can pre-register in the Google Play Store and the iOS App Store.
