Netflix's Squid Game: Unleashed is now available for free on iOS and Android devices. This marks the first time Netflix has offered a game for free to all players, regardless of subscription status. The battle royale game features deathmatch scenarios inspired by the popular Korean drama series.
Players compete in challenges reminiscent of the show's iconic games, including the Glass Bridge, Red Light Green Light, and Dalgona, alongside new, more perilous challenges. While less intense than the source material, Squid Game: Unleashed delivers fast-paced, competitive multiplayer action.
A Strategic Move by Netflix
Netflix's decision to offer the game for free is a smart strategic move, rather than a sign of desperation. It effectively promotes the Squid Game series, attracting both existing fans and new viewers. Offering the game to all players also guarantees a larger, more active player base, overcoming a common hurdle for multiplayer game launches.
The game appears to be a fun and engaging title. For more upcoming game releases, check out our dedicated column featuring early previews.
