Kicking the Game off with “Red light, Green light”, the YouTuber explained: “Every single player has a device strapped to them, that when they’re eliminated, it pops.” MrBeast revealed that making the video cost over $3.5million, and the funding of it was provided to him by the mobile game company Brawl Stars. The party also saw Teigen and husband John Legend’s home transformed to mimic the set of the show, while servers dressed as Squid Game’s guards passed out refreshments, according to People.
