Netflix is turning up the excitement as Squid Game: The Challenge prepares for its Season 2 debut on November 4, 2025. This time, reality TV star Chrishell Stause from Selling Sunset gave fans an early peek at the show’s redesigned dorms, which will house 456 contestants competing for the massive $4.56 million prize, the largest ever in reality TV.
The dorms feature a striking mix of pink and green, with towering bunk beds and glowing game symbols on the walls, creating a tense, high-stakes environment. Chrishell joked that the stress of the competition reminded her of the drama on Selling Sunset: “You can’t imagine the pressure, but at least these people aren’t fighting over escrow!”
