What is the Black Ops 6 Squid Game event? Anyone who has watched Netflix’s Squid Game knows just how brutal being a contestant is on that particular game show. People volunteer to take part in various activities, competing against each other and whoever is in charge for a huge prize. The downside, sadly, is that failure often spells death.
We have been treated to plenty of new Black Ops 6 events during the festive season, with the developer throwing out some major hints about a Squid Game one coming soon after the holiday cheer has faded. Expect plenty of Black Ops 6 cosmetics, calling cards, and emblems, all themed around the pink-jumpsuit-wearing wardens and possibly that creepy girl from Red Light, Green Light. We’d even take a Black Ops 6 weapon skin themed around the delicious-looking dalgona candy, to be honest.
Black Ops 6 Squid Game event date
We expect the Black Ops 6 Squid Game even to begin on January 3, 2025. The Archie’s Festive Frenzy event ends on that day, so it’s a fairly safe bet to assume Squid Game will pick up where the spherical-headed holiday character left off.
The Squid Game event will contain a bunch of limited-time modes for Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone. We’re hoping that the Black Ops 6 mode Prop Hunt will be involved at some point; it’s already a lethal version of hide and seek and we could see it fitting in quite nicely.
Black Ops 6 Squid Game rewards
As well as limited-time modes, we expect there to be a ton of Squid Game-themed cosmetics to pick up. We’ve already had a glimpse of the Squid Game guard skins, with their faceless masks and pink jumpsuits, as well as a black and pink weapon skin, and the looming figure of the Front Man.
That’s everything we know about the Black Ops 6 Squid Game event right now, but rest assured we’ll update this guide when more information is available.
