Everything you need to know about 'The Squid Game: The Challenge', the contest inspired by the famous Netflix series

The series The Squid Game managed to make history on Netflix by becoming the most viewed fiction on the platform. The audiovisual project created by Hwang Dong-hyuk premiered in 2021, and although its premiere did not cause a special stir among the population, its popularity increased as the days went by, to the point of becoming an unprecedented global phenomenon. .

The success was such that the American platform decided to renew the series with a second season to the joy of millions of followers around the world. At the moment the official premiere date of this new season is unknown, but everything seems to indicate that it will take place next year.

To whet your appetite and so that the wait does not become so long, the creators of the series decided to bet on a reality show based on the dynamics of the series, The Camalar Game: The Challenge. This new contest arrives this Wednesday, November 22, on Netflix with the aim of revolutionizing the millions of followers of the South Korean series.

456 players will have to put all their skills into action in the different challenges of the contest to win the succulent final prize: 4.56 million dollars. In this way, the program will make history again, like its predecessor, since it will be the reality show that distributes the most money and the one with the largest number of contestants in the history of these formats.

Red light, green light, The Umbrella Man, War, Nowhere to Hide and A Breath are the titles of the first five chapters that are available from this Wednesday on the platform. To enjoy the rest of the tests, viewers will have to wait until November 29 to view the next four episodes and until December 6, which will be the day the grand final is broadcast.

It should be noted that this contest, unlike the original series, is not recorded in South Korea, but in England. In June 2022, Netflix published the casting announcement, to which people from all over the world applied, with the only requirement being to speak English.
