Building on the success of “Round 6,” which became the most-watched series in Netflix history, streaming decided to bring the game to life. But calm down, the losers won’t be murdered…just eliminated from the game.
The reality show will replicate games from the series and will have 456 contestants competing for a prize of US$4.56 million (R$23 million at today’s prices).
This is the highest value for a reality show in streaming history.

The show will be filmed in the UK by the company that produces “The Circle”.
