Everyone and their mom knows that Squid Game is a huge hit. Nobody doubts that anymore. But what exactly does the hit series Netflix deliver? At the beginning of this week it was announced that the streaming service earns tons of money from the relatively small investment of about 20 million dollars. But what about the number of new Netflix subscribers who insist on watching Squid Game?
How many subscribers will Netflix get from Squid Game?
After Monday’s leaked figures, Netflix gave a look behind the scenes on Tuesday. Which showed that in Q3 of 2021, as many as 4.4 million new users joined the streaming service. That’s more than double the number of new users in Q3 last year.
In total, nearly 214 million people worldwide have a Netflix subscription, of which roughly 62% watched Squid Game. In short, unprecedented numbers. Although Squid Game only came out in the last month of that quarter, the show has had a significant impact. Netflix itself confirms that.
But money is money
Still want Netflix of course you can see flaps and that is also good for the past quarter. The streaming service’s revenue rose to no less than $7.5 billion, roughly 16% more than a year earlier.
And to increase the cash a little extra, Netflix is also announcing an extra Squid Game news in line with all new subscribers. The streaming giant will make ‘consumer products’ around the series. So expect to encounter masks everywhere, everywhere and that giant doll soon.
