MrBeast and Amazon Prime Video is moving forward with Beast Games, a reality competition series from the influencer.
Amazon Prime Video is one-upping “Squid Game: The Challenge” with its own massive reality competition show. “Beast Games” comes from influencer MrBeast and will follow 1,000 contestants competing for a prize of $5 million.
The upcoming series is based on MrBeast’s already successful YouTube show and seeks to become the biggest reality competition series ever. It certainly has the biggest cash payout in the history of both television and streaming. Netflix’s “Squid Game: The Challenge,” which previously held that record, followed 456 players competing for a prize of $4.56 million.
MrBeast will serve as the host and executive producer of the upcoming series. “Beast Games” will be a Prime Video exclusive and will be available to stream in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
“MrBeast has captured the attention and imagination of fans of all ages, from all walks of life and all over the world,” Jennifer Salke, head of Amazon MGM Studios, said in a press release.
