But hey, they are already prepared to release it.

Netflix revealed that the show will be out in November but the OTT giant has not revealed the exact date yet.
It has been reported that Squid Game: The Challenge will revolve around contestants who will be trapped on a remote island. The contestants must make alliances and navigate through challenges and outlast their opponents to win the grand prize. The 10-episode competition series was filmed in the United Kingdom.
The show and its cast received multiple accolades including Golden Globe Awards and Emmy Award nominations. Starring Lee Jung-jae, Park Hae-soo, Wi Ha-joon, Heo Sung-tae, Anupam Tripathi and Kim Joo-ryoung, Squid Games went on to become one of Netflix’s most loved shows.
