Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Squid Game: The Challenge has 456 real people to win 4.56 million dollars prize in new trailer.
However the series has already been mired in controversy after contestants required medical assistance during the shoot, which took place in the U.K. during a surprise cold snap. Variety reported at the time that a number of contestants — who were not paid for their participation in the series — collapsed on set from a combination of cold and fatigue.
The show is produced by Studio Lambert — the same company behind hit game show “The Traitors” — and The Garden.
Netflix have released a trailer for their upcoming reality show based on “Squid Game.”
The streamer also confirmed the show is set to drop on Nov. 22. Previously, they revealed the game show was going to premiere in November at their Tudu fan event earlier this summer.

Only one winner will take home the $4.56 million cash prize.
“Though the reality version of ‘Squid Game‘ isn’t a matter of life or death, there’s still a lot on the line,” reads the show’s logline. “456 players will compete to win $4.56 million, the largest cash prize in reality television history. Through a series of games, each player will be pushed to their limits and forced to ask themselves just how far they’ll go to win, with opportunistic alliances, cutthroat strategies and timely betrayals to follow.”
