January's Content Drop:

  • January 3rd: New "Mingle" map and Geum-Ja character. The "Dalgona Mash Up Collection Event" (until January 9th) challenges players to complete Mingle mini-games and collect Dalgona tins.
  • January 9th: Thanos arrives with his "Thanos’ Red Light Challenge" event (until January 14th). Eliminate players using knives to unlock him.
  • January 16th: Yong-Sik joins the game as the final new character in this update.

Squid Game: Unleashed might be a game-changer for Netflix's gaming strategy. The bold move of free-to-play access, coupled with rewarding Netflix subscribers and encouraging viewership, cleverly intertwines the game with the show's success.
