…is BACK! On November 4th. This feels quite surprising for some reason although it’s been two years since the first one so it shouldn’t be really. Also a third series has been greenlit, although I thought it was recommissioned for two further series anyway, maybe I’m misremembering. Advert doesn’t pick a fight with Mr Beast over which is “bigger”.
I note they seem to be going with ink splats now rather than blood packs.
I’m extremely interested to see if and how they’ve translated some of the games from the recent series, clearly they’re using the five tasks race thing in this trailer, but I’m intrigued to see if they do the Starry Night Hide and Seek from the recent series (which I suspect will have been much too much hassle to actually recreate in real life, but I’d be really interested to know how creatively that was shot and how much set they built for it) amongst other games I’ll not spoil (but they’re definitely going to have to replace the last one).
In other Game of Death news, Alice in Borderland 3 (Squid Game‘s smarter, dare I say better cousin) is out September 25th. Can’t wait!
Win the “good but not great” (and that was from someone who actually won it, so lower your expectations accordingly) London live experience and get priority consideration for casting for the third series of the live show, It’s a hook!
I had to read that a few times before realising you weren’t the person who won at Squid Games London and won’t be appearing in the TV show.
I now look forward to discovering how many people in series three have actually come through the immersive experience. At least £35 seems quite cheap as these things go.
