A reality show contest where sixteen or more castaways split between two or more “Tribes” are taken to a remote isolated location and are forced to live off the land with meager supplies for roughly 39 days. Frequent physical challenges are used to pit the tribes against each other for rewards, such as food or luxuries, or for “Immunity”, forcing the other tribe to attend “Tribal Council”, where they must vote off one of their players.
21 new Castaways are set to embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Stranded on the beaches of Fiji they’re tasked with forming a new society, adapting to their surroundings, and navigating an unpredictable social game to ensure their torch stays lit. The Open Era will test their endurance, strategy, and willpower in pursuit of the title of Sole Survivor and the $1 million grand prize.
