More than 40 of the 456 contestants entered the game with connections to each other

In Squid Game: The Challenge Season 1, the mother-and-son duo of LeAnn (otherwise known as Player 302) and Trey (Player 301) easily became two of the most memorable players in the reality competition series. Their alliance helped them survive multiple challenges, before the infamous "Marbles" game — in which one contestant must be eliminated — forced the pair to play against each other. In Season 2 of the Netflix reality competition series, a whopping 46 contestants entering the games already have a connection to each other. TV Guide can exclusively reveal a first look at these duos and groups, which you can find below.
Based on Hwang Dong-hyuk's Squid Game, Squid Game: The Challenge features 456 contestants vying for $4.56 million. Here are the players in this upcoming season who are connected, from twins to married couples.
