The trailer has received 810.2K views as of now which are increasing by the minute.

Interestingly, the challenges will have an element of surprise, different from that on the show, with dozens being eliminated as the game progresses.

Three of the 456 players in the game "Red Light, Green Light," in which players must avoid the attention of a menacing robotic doll, required medical attention due to complications brought on by a cold snap in Britain at Cardington Studios, a former Royal Air Force base in Bedford.

At the time, "all the necessary safety precautions" had been implemented by the program, stated a representative.

However, as revealed by Deadline, the British Health and Safety Executive had first advised producers to appropriately account for risk but finally decided that no more action was required.
