There have been leaks suggesting that either a Squid Games-based or an altogether standalone Squid Game title might be in the early stages of development. Tom Henderson,  an insider in the gaming industry, in a Tweet suggested that a project like Squid Games is in its early stages. He noted that he is not sure which developer and studio took up the project. Henderson also added that this project would stand as an evolution for Battle Royale games. He further said that “The future of [battle royale] is coming.”
