Everything You Can Expect at Squid Game: The Experience

Fans and thrill-seekers alike are invited to step into the immersive SQUID GAME: THE EXPERIENCE, and face the on-screen challenges in-person, testing their skills and strategy in heart-pounding Games inspired by the series. Once the game is complete - all players can explore the Night Market featuring authentic Korean snacks, special vending machines, and a fully stocked bar with Squid Game inspired cocktails. To further the Squid Game experience, players can stop by the Squid Mart to bring home their very own exclusive collectibles, apparel and games.

FIVE EXCLUSIVE GAMES

1. Memory Steps (inspired by Glass Bridge) You've seen Glass Bridge on screen - The Experience version challenges you to memorize the steps to keep crossing - or be eliminated - along with your whole group. Step lightly.

2. Marbles - Find your shape and stand on it. What looks like an innocent day on the playground will turn into a ruthless game of marbles - use your bag of various-sized balls to throw your opponent off of the board. May the best pitch win.

3. Warships (featured on The Challenge and exclusive to NYC experience) - Featured on Squid Game: The Challenge, the reality competition show, this game embarks players in a life-sized version of Warships, where you'll face off against another group, using a grid and your instincts to hit the ship on the other side of the wall.

4. Red Light Green Light - The eponymous game from Squid Game the series and The Challenge reality competition, Young-hee is in NYC to catch players in action - and dismiss them from the game for not staying perfectly still as they venture to her side of the room.

5. Finale - This one is a secret and exclusive to NYC experience!

Watch Season One now at Netflix.com/SquidGame. Created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, Squid Game premiered globally on Netflix in September 2021 and quickly became Netflix's most popular title ever, amassing over 265M views within just 91 days. Its rapid rise from Korea to a global sensation dramatically boosted interest in K-content worldwide and solidified its place in pop culture. Squid Game's impact extended beyond the screen with its iconic green tracksuits selling out as Halloween costumes around the world and Vans seeing an 8,000% increase in sales of its classic white slip-on sneakers. Memes and iconic moments became viral sensations, the red light/green light scene remains the #1 video on Netflix's TikTok and the hashtag #squidgame generated 6 Billion views in just 12 months.

Squid Game Season 1 made Emmy history with 14 nominations and six wins, including first-ever wins for a non-English language series. The highly-anticipated second season premieres December 26, 2024 and a third and final season was confirmed for 2025. Squid Game: The Challenge, which won best reality series at the BAFTA TV Awards and spent five weeks on Netflix's Global Top 10, is currently in production on Season 2.

Following the unprecedented global success of Squid Game's first season and the Netflix reality series Squid Game: The Challenge, fans were invited to connect with their favorite characters and try their hand at games inspired by the series during the exclusive Los Angeles experience run from December 2023 to March 2024. The inaugural Los Angeles Squid Game Experience quickly became a fan favorite.

Squid Game: The Experience builds on the popularity of over 50 immersive experiences that Netflix has launched in 25+ cities globally, such as The Queen's Ball: A Bridgerton Experience, Stranger Things: The Experience, NETFLIX BITES, and coming soon, Netflix House.
