NETFLIX has released the first trailer for wild new reality show Squid Game: The Challenge. <\/p>\n
The series is based on the smash hit Korean show which became Netflix\u2019s most-watched of all time.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
It will see 456 contestants competing in a range of games inspired by Squid Game – minus the grisly deaths. <\/p>\n
Dozens will be eliminated as the games<\/span> progress, but players need to try their hardest to stay in as the prize fund is a colossal \u00a33.7 million ($4.5 million). <\/p>\n The trailer opened with creepy music and a masked figure in red saying: "Attention players, you will now compete for the biggest cash prize in reality show history<\/span>."<\/p>\n Viewers are then given glimpses of some of the challenges based on the drama series, as well as some "surprising new additions".<\/p>\n A contestant is then heard saying: "$4.56 million dollars? People do a whole lot worse for a whole lot less."<\/p>\n The contestants are all seen wearing the green tracksuits like the characters in the show, but they'll hope their fates are much more fortunate than theirs. <\/p>\n However, some weren't so lucky, as during filming The Sun exclusively revealed how a number of contestants had to be stretchered off set due to the freezing cold conditions. <\/p>\n A severe cold snap<\/span> in the UK back in January sent temperatures plummeting to -3C and one challenge saw the contestants have to remain completely motionless to win that round.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Players told The Sun many felt like they had frostbite and said: \u201cIt was like a warzone. People left in tears.\u201d<\/p>\n One exhausted player was stretchered away and others had to crawl to the finish.<\/p>\n One told The Sun: \u201cEven if hypothermia kicked in then people were willing to stay for as long as possible because a lot of money<\/span> was on the line. Too many were determined not to move so they stood there for far too long.<\/p>\n \u201cThere were people arriving thinking they were going to be millionaires but they left in tears.\u201d<\/p>\n Squid Game: The Challenge<\/span> premieres on Netflix<\/span> on November 22, 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\nRead More on Netflix<\/span><\/h2>\n
