Free Fire’s 8th Anniversary is about to get even more intense with the launch of its official Squid Game crossover. This new event kicks off on July 14, giving every player the chance to take on challenges straight from the Netflix hit, unlock iconic rewards, and stand out with exclusive themed cosmetics. Let’s take a closer look at what this crossover brings to the popular battle royale action game.

What’s Included in the Free Fire x Squid Game Event?

The headline feature of this collab is the Red Light, Green Light challenge, playable inside Free Fire when the collaboration lands on July 14. You’ll compete against others in this tense game mode, just like in the show. Win rounds to collect unique rewards, climb event leaderboards, and unlock exclusive cosmetics—all themed after Squid Game’s most memorable moments.

The event also rolls out signature Squid Game outfits, so you can suit up in the show’s iconic tracksuits or guard uniforms. Plus, themed accessories and new voicelines are available to help you customize your look even further. Each item is designed to bring the Squid Game aesthetic into Free Fire’s familiar battle royale action.

How to Join the Red Light, Green Light Challenge

Getting started is easy. Head to the event tab after July 14 and join the Red Light, Green Light game mode. The rules follow the Squid Game format: move forward when it’s green, freeze instantly when it’s red. Only the quickest and sharpest players will make it to the finish line and claim the best rewards.

Be sure to check daily missions and time-limited objectives during the event period, since extra challenges can grant more exclusive event loot.

What is the Ddakji Master Challenge?

For those in the US, Free Fire is hosting the Ddakji Master Challenge as an in-person competition from July 16 to July 27. This offline event takes place at select shopping malls in Dallas, Houston, and Miami. Anyone can try their hand at the Ddakji tile-flipping mini-game, made famous by Squid Game’s opening scenes. The top player across all cities will walk away with a $4,560 cash prize, making this one of Free Fire’s biggest live prizes yet.

Details on participating venues and how to register will be announced on Free Fire’s official channels—such as their website, Facebook, Twitter, or Youtube accounts—so keep an eye out if you’re planning to join. It’s a rare moment when games actually offer prize money for participating and winning at their events, so don’t miss out on this one if you’re in the area!

Is There More Squid Game Content on the Way?

The Free Fire x Squid Game collaboration is part of a series of surprises that come with the game’s 8th anniversary celebration. Along with the new crossover, you’ll find the new map Solara, added features, extra rewards, and plenty of Easter eggs to discover around the map.
