Immersive Gamebox is announcing a full-scale, interactive format for Netflix’s Squid Game in New York. The multiplayer experience is Immersive Gamebox’s first adults-only experience, for players age 16 and up. Groups of two to six players will get to navigate challenges inspired by the series, including Red Light Green Light, Marbles and the eponymous Squid Game itself.
Immersive Gamebox’s (formerly known as Electric Gamebox) proprietary motion-sensing technology and touch screens will surround the interactive digital smart rooms, which they call Gameboxes. While inside one, players have to test their reflexes and skills to advance to the next stage.

“People are constantly seeking new and different ways to remain invested in their favorite content,” said Immersive Gamebox boss Will Dean, in a statement to GamesBeat. “To reimagine Netflix’s most popular show in an entirely new format offers customers more ways to stay connected to Squid Game.”
