Custom games have always been a staple in the Fortnite community, and with the success of 2021's "Squid Games" Netflix series, it was only a matter of time before the death-games feature in the popular series made its way into Fortnite in the form of custom games. But how do you access these custom games, and how does it all work? Well, that's where this guide has you covered. 

Below, we'll show you how to play any of the Squid Game-themed modes in Fortnite Creative, the details of each available one, as well as how each of them works in terms of rules. So without further delay, let's dive right in!

How to play Squid Game in Fortnite Creative Mode

Before delving into the specifics of each custom Squid Game mode within the game, let's first examine how you can access them. Essentially, the process is akin to joining other custom games. Players will need a unique map code to enter a particular mode in Fortnite Creative. Once they possess the map code, they can navigate to the game selection menu in Fortnite to join the custom map.

As mentioned earlier, Fortnite Creative presents players with multiple Squid Game-themed modes to enjoy. Each of these modes can be accessed using the codes provided below. The initial one is the most recent and well-optimized mode, brought to you by @UEFN_hub. So, let's go through each mode and their respective codes.

Squid Game Mode 

  • Map Code: 1202-0130-7283
  • Immerse yourself in the ultimate trial of skill and survival, reimagined within the Fortnite universe! 

The Lab Games

  • Map Code: 9684-5332-0845
  • This Fortnite map combines four mini-games from Squid Game, allowing players to engage in all of them simultaneously. The Lab Games accommodate 4-16 players, competing together, with the last player standing declared the victor. 

Glass Bridge Escape

  • Map Code: 2865-1481-0812
  • The Glass Bridge Escape map in Fortnite has become incredibly popular among Squid Game enthusiasts. Participants must traverse a glass bridge before the timer expires, but there's a twist: fragile tiles on the bridge will shatter if stepped upon. 

Survival Game 

  • Map Code: 0652-7985-6622
  • As the name suggests, the Survival Game map in Fortnite embodies the concept fully. It encompasses six games, including Red Light Green Light, Marbles, Honeycomb, Night Fight, Stepping Stones, and Tug of War. To emerge victorious, one must survive through each stage.

Red Light Green Light 

  • Map Code: 6796-5852-0804
  • The Red Light Green Light Fortnite map replicates the mini-game from Squid Game, where participants must pass by a vigilant robot before the timer expires. Green light signifies movement, while red light demands a halt. Movement during the red light phase results in elimination, making the mini-game all about timing and patience. 

Sypher's Squid Game 

  • Map Code: 7268-0342-8131
  • Renowned YouTuber SypherPK presents his own Squid Game map in Fortnite, known as Sypher's Squid Game. It resembles the Red Light Green Light map, with the added feature of allowing players to take on the role of the supervisor. 

PWR's Squad Game 

  • Map Code: 8443-5747-3271
  • While the name might seem a bit off, Squad Game stands as one of the finest Squid Game maps in Fortnite. From Red Light Green Light to Honeycomb to Tug-a-War, this map includes all the mini-games from Squid Game.

So there you have it, a full breakdown of the latest Squid Game's custom games available in Fortnite, from the most recent to some of the most popular, as well as how to play each of them. If more games are added that rise in popularity, we will be sure to add them to this list, so be sure to check back here soon!
