Squid Game: Unleashed\'s release date unveiled alongside new trailer

Netflix Games' highly anticipated Squid Game: Unleashed mobile game finally has a release date: December 17th! A new trailer showcases the chaotic, violent gameplay awaiting players.

The game launches for iOS and Android on 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 widely. Squid Game: Unleashed, however, promises a more action-packed experience.

Squid Game: Unleashed pits players against friends and strangers in a recreation of the show's deadly games, albeit with a lighter, more humorous tone. This approach may appeal to fans of the original show, capitalizing on its widespread popularity.

The game features iconic scenarios from the series, along with new additions. Launching just before the December 26th premiere of Squid Game season two, Squid Game: Unleashed could be a major hit for Netflix. Pre-registration is available now!

CalamariThe irony of a show about dehumanization and the exploitation of death for entertainment being adapted into a multiplayer battle game is certainly noteworthy. However, from a purely objective standpoint, it's a logical move. Netflix seems to have recognized the potential of a dedicated multiplayer audience to retain users, even if they aren't interested in all of the streaming platform's offerings.

While you wait for the game's release, consider checking out other recent releases. Jack Brassel's positive review of the relaxing gardening simulator Honey Grove is worth a look.
