Get ready for another exciting season of Squid Game: The Challenge! Just like the first season, it’s going to be full of surprises. Since all the episodes won’t be released at once, here’s a guide to when they’ll be available so you don’t miss out.
Though the main story of Squid Game recently concluded with Season 3, the franchise isn’t over. There’s talk of an American version being made, but nothing is official yet.
While we wait for more, Squid Game: The Challenge is back. This reality show features 456 players competing in games you played as a kid, but with a huge twist: the winner receives a massive $4.56 million prize!
The first season was incredibly wild, both on and off camera. We heard stories about players using condoms as lip balm while filming, and one popular contestant, Bee, received a lot of requests for pictures of her feet! Now, we’re about to find out what Season 2 has in store, and it won’t be long before it arrives.
