Netflix's Squid Game: Unleashed is now available for free on iOS and Android! This marks the first time Netflix has offered a game for free to all players, regardless of subscription status. Get ready for battle royale action inspired by the hit show.
The wildly popular Korean drama Squid Game captivated audiences worldwide with its high-stakes death games based on children's games. The premise: desperate individuals compete for a life-changing $40 million prize.
Squid Game: Unleashed retains the thrill of the original series but offers a less intense, though still competitive, experience. Players battle it out in familiar scenarios like the Glass Bridge, Red Light Green Light, and Dalgona, alongside brand new, potentially deadlier challenges.
A Smart Move by Netflix?
Netflix's decision to make Squid Game: Unleashed free for everyone is a strategic move, not a sign of desperation. It cleverly leverages the show's popularity to attract new players and re-engage existing fans. A free-to-play model also guarantees a larger player base, overcoming the common hurdle of low player counts in multiplayer games.
This looks like a fun and engaging title. For a preview of other upcoming game releases, be sure to check out our dedicated column.
