it's not just a rehash of the original Squid Game; it's loaded with new twists
and challenges.
In a surprising move, this series will incorporate real

decked out in the iconic green jumpsuits that have become synonymous with the
Squid Game.
Netflix sets the setting for the challenge, noting that "456 real players will compete for a life-changing prize of USD $4.56 million." As they participate in a variety of games inspired by the original program – as well as startling new additions – their plans, friendships, and character will be tested as competitors are removed around them."
