The Solana-based SEND Arcade has released the second season of its on-chain Squid Game inspired Squad Game. Players can mint entry passes on Magic Eden starting from Dec. 30.

According to the official X post, SEND (SEND) Arcade has provided a total of 456 Squad Game Season 2 entry passes that users can mint on Magic Eden, starting from Dec. 30. Each entry pass is valued at 0.69 SOL, which is equal to $133,177 based on current prices.

Squad Game is an on-chain game based off the popular Netflix series, Squid Game. In accordance with the global release of Squid Game Season 2 on Dec. 26, SEND Arcade has decided to release the second installment of Squad Game.

According to Magic Eden, Squad Game is a fully online “interactive survival game” where more than 450 players participate in a series of challenges spanning three weeks starting on January 2025. Similar to how Netflix’s Squid Game works, the prize pool will keep increasing as more and more players get eliminated.

In the first round of Squad Game, players must choose one out of four symbols: a circle, a triangle, a star or an umbrella. The symbol with the smallest number of choosers will become the Death Symbol and the players who chose it will be eliminated.

The second round is called Red Light, Red Light, echoing one of the iconic Squid Game rounds where a giant doll shoots down players who make a move in a twisted version of freeze tag. This round and the ones that follow are still closed from the last Squad Game in September, with a list of winners still shown on a leaderboard.

It is still unknown whether the sequel will feature the same games or if new ones will be introduced. It is known that Squid Game Season 2 features old and new games, so it is possible that Squad Games might once again follow in its footsteps.
