There are no details at this stage, but it’ll be multiplayer.
In amongst announcements onprice plans ending in the USand subscriber growth, Netlix’s quarterly report to shareholders also included a really tantalising tidbit about its plans for the next season ofSquid Game.
We know that the show’s second season iscoming sometime in 2024, but with half the year already in the rearview mirror, it’s not exactly clear when that’ll happen yet.
What we also now know is that thestreaming servicehas a potentially ambitious plan to accompany the new season with a fresh gaming release to let fans of the series compete for themselves.
In asectionabout its gaming initiative, which is now three years old,Netflixsaid: “Separately, we will premiere a multiplayer game based on theSquid Gameuniverse later this year timed to the launch of season two of our biggest TV series ever.”
That’s the sort of wording that both tells us one huge headline (there’s a multiplayerSquid Gametitle on the way) but also leaves us in the dark on a whole heap of other details. We don’t yet know how many players it’ll support, whether it’ll tie into the new season or when it will arrive.
Whatever the case, it’s certain that Netflix is doing its level best to leverage the titanic success ofSquid Game’s first season.

Given that we’re now speeding towards August and there are only so many months left in the year, don’t be surprised if we get a first teaser forSquid GameSeason 2 fairly soon.
Netflix will want to allow plenty of time for the hype to build, after all.
