Squid Game

Squid Game is a puzzle and simulation game released on iOS in September 2021, following the massive success of Netflix's Korean drama of the same name. The mobile title offers gameplay based on the show's competitive challenge format.

Recent coverage has centered on Netflix's television ambitions rather than the game itself. The streaming service had been reportedly developing an English-language adaptation of the Squid Game series with director David Fincher, with potential production slated for 2026. However, Netflix has decided not to move forward with that project, effectively ending the planned American version. The television adaptation was never officially confirmed by Netflix prior to its cancellation.
