This is the best summary I could come up with:

Squid Game: The Challenge, Netflix’s reality show based on Squid Game that will pit 456 people against each other for $4.56 million, will debut on November 22nd, the company announced on Friday.

For people based in the US, I’m guessing that means a lot of families will be watching this show over Thanksgiving vacations.

Netflix announced the series in June 2022, surprising no one after the humongous success of Squid Game following its 2021 debut.

However, the lead-up to release has been a little bit bumpy, as the company had to defend itself following reports of some medical issues on set.

Netflix is also planning to launch retail destinations in 2025, and I’d guess the company will attempt some kind of real-world Squid Game tie-ins at those stores.

The company hasn’t shared a release date for it yet, but it has revealed a few new cast members.
