Working With Squid Game Islands

Ready to play for keeps? You can now create Fortnite islands with assets and content from Squid Game using Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) and Fortnite Creative!

You can use Squid Game-themed devices, island templates, props, galleries, and NPCs to create a Squid Game-inspired gameplay experience. It's all ready for you to create high-stakes challenges masked as childhood games.

Create puzzles and conundrums for your players. Think of the simple games of your childhood, and try to use their nostalgic facade to hide the twists and turns you’re setting up for your players!

Squid Game Template Islands

You can start building Squid Game islands with three new project templates in UEFN, under the Brand Templates tab. Here's a list of the new Squid Game island templates you can use:

• Squid Game Starter Island (UEFN only)

• Minigames Mastery Template (UEFN only)

• Social Deduction Template (UEFN only)

Social Deduction Template

Other Ways to Create Squid Games Islands

You can also make a Squid Game Island using any starter island on the Island Templates tab in UEFN, and selecting Squid Game from the Brand dropdown. In Creative, you can build a Squid Games island using the Squid Game Flat Grid starter island, or the Squid Game XL Flat Grid starter island.

After you create your island, you will have access to Squid Game curated assets to build and design your gameplay. The feature set includes assets like Squid Game characters, devices, galleries, widgets, audio, and more. You can access the feature set in the respective Squid Game folder in UEFN and Creative.

Publishing Islands

To publish Squid Game islands, you must be a member of the Island Creator Program and you’ll need to opt into additional terms and conditions in the Creator Portal, which confirm you’ll agree to share 15% of your engagement payout for Squid Game islands with Netflix (see fee schedule). If you’ve already opted into the terms and conditions to publish other IP islands (like The Walking Dead Universe or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), you don't need to do this again for Squid Games. Your island must follow the Squid Game Brand and Creator rules.

IARC Audience Restrictions

Any Squid Game islands that you create must have an age-appropriate rating. The Creator Portal is set up to guide you through this process, as part of the island publishing workflow. As a general rule, you should create your island with all audiences in mind.

The table below shows each Rating Authority and region, and their age-appropriate rating for a Squid Game island.

Squid Game Characters

You can populate your islands with AI characters wearing the iconic green jumpsuits from Squid Game. You’ll also have access to pink-suited guards with three mask decal options (circle, triangle, square), as well as the black-suited guard seen in the series.

You can access these characters from the following devices:

• Guard Spawner

• Character Device

• NPC Spawner

Dalgona Destroyer	Ddakji Defender	Flying Stone Fighter
Games Guard Manager	Games Guard Soldier	Games Guard Worker
Games Manager	Glass Bridge Survivor	Gong-gi Great
Green Light Guardian	Jegi Juggler	Marble Maven
Pentathlon Perfector	Tug of War Titan

Devices

There are special Squid Game versions of several devices, which you can use to enhance your Squid Game island. The Gift Box is a special Hiding Prop device that you can customize, which has the same device options as any other hiding prop. The Llama Bank is a special Progress Based Mesh device that is ideal for a visual indicator of how successful each player is in a minigame. The colored Gonggi shapes are special versions of the Carryable Spawner device, which you can set to explode or cause damage when it is thrown. Each Gonggi color is a separate device.

You can combine the Disguise Kit with the Disguise device, to turn players into guards, managers, or contestants. You can apply disguises for the following:

• Squid Game Games Guard Manager

• Squid Game Games Guard Soldier

• Squid Game Player

• Squid Game Player Manager

You can use the Voting Group and Voting Options devices to set up a voting system. Players can vote to eliminate or damage other players in tense and high-stakes scenarios!

Items

Throwables

The Red Ddajki, Blue Ddjaki and Flying Stone are new damage items that can be equipped and thrown, inspired by classic childhood games. Use them to add some light-hearted combat to your island, or for throwing at targets in a minigame. Or you can come up with something totally new!
