Fans of the Squid Game franchise, especially those who enjoy video games, received disappointing news: Netflix has shut down Boss Fight Entertainment, the team that created the Squid Game: Unleashed game.
Turning Squid Game into a video game makes perfect sense – the show is essentially built around a series of challenges, much like minigames. This idea isn’t new, as similar concepts have been used before. The main difference is the high stakes in Squid Game: failing a minigame means certain death.
Squid Game: Unleashed’s Studio Has Been Closed By Netflix
In 2022, Netflix bought Boss Fight Entertainment, a game studio, to start creating games based on its shows and movies. This was part of a bigger move into the gaming world, which also included a game based on the popular series The Queen’s Gambit. In 2024, Boss Fight Entertainment released Squid Game: Unleashed for Android and iOS, letting mobile gamers experience the intense challenges of the show.
Netflix has shut down Boss Fight Entertainment, but players can still enjoy Squid Game: Unleashed online. This closure highlights a concerning pattern within the industry.
The Boss Fight Entertainment Shut Down May Signal Changes At Netflix
Netflix is scaling back its direct involvement in game development, seemingly deciding it’s more cost-effective to license its popular shows and movies to other gaming companies. While this shift makes sense financially, the closure of Boss Fight Entertainment is unexpected, considering their Squid Game: Unleashed game was a hit, becoming one of the most downloaded games in many countries when it first launched.
