There is no doubt that Fortnite and Squid Game share a lot of similarities. Players are stuck in the same place together, and they must compete to see who comes out on top. Therefore, it's not surprising at all that fans have been asking Epic Games to bring Squid Game to Fortnite for ages now. Gamers even came up with their own Squid Game Creative maps, such as the popular Octo Game island, to scratch the itch.

How to Play the Squid Game Map in Fortnite

Fortnite's Reload game mode has received a Squid Game map, and players get to play it continuously all weekend long, as there is no map rotation until Monday, June 30.

To play the Squid Game Reload map in Fortnite, players must visit the By Epic tab in the Discovery menu (below the lobby screen) and select one of the various Reload map options. There is quite a lot of variety when picking a Reload game. Players can choose between Reload Build, Reload Zero Build, Ranked Reload Build, and Ranked Reload Zero Build. Reload game modes are available for Solos, Duos, and Squads.

Squid Game Quests are available until October 3, 2025, so the map will most likely be in rotation in Fortnite Reload until then.

Can You Play Squid Game Minigames in Fortnite Reload?

There are Squid Game minigames in the Squid Game Reload map in Fortnite. However, it is still a Battle Royale game mode rather than a party game. This means that fans won't be able to have the same experience that they did in Squid Game recreations in Fortnite Creative.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to simply enter the Squid Game map and play minigames. They serve as a complement to the experience and a fun way to acquire rare weapons. Here is where players must go if they want to try out the Squid Game minigames in Fortnite Reload:

  • squid game games in fortnite reload
    • Red Light Green Light: Red Greens
    • Glass Bridge: In the building west of the bridge that connects to Phoney Crossroads from the north side

If players don't make it across the room, they will lose a reboot. However, if they succeed, they will be rewarded with valuable Rare Chests.
