Squid Game: The Challenge release schedule - When is the final episode on Netflix?
All 10 episodes are available to enjoy right now.
Netflix's reality take on its Korean drama series Squid Game has proved a massive hit, hooking in viewers with its various twists and turns.
Squid Game: The Challenge , which sees 456 contestants take on the deadly challenges from the original series in the hopes of bagging a whopping $4.56 million (£3.78 million) cash prize, launched on Netflix on Wednesday 22nd November at 8am (GMT) with the first five episodes.
The second batch of episodes landed on Wednesday 29th November at the same time, and the final arrived a week later.
While most of the games remained the same, the Squid Game: The Challenge contestants were left in shock in episode 3 with the introduction of a new game, War Ships, instead of the tug of war challenge which the show decided to exclude.
There were lots more twists along the way, including the opportunity to eliminate other players. However, the tricky glass bridge challenge was spot on, with the show's designers revealing exclusively to RadioTimes.com how they managed to create it.
