MrBeast shares official trailer for Beast Games in X post
Within the trailer and in previous promotional posts, MrBeast has disclosed that the show will be featuring 1,000 participants, going up against each other to win a prize of $5,000,000.
He also claimed that the show has broken 40 world records in its production process. Beast Games will have ten episodes, which will be released on December 19, 2024, exclusively on Prime Video. Akin to the hit Netflix series, Squid Game, the participants will be eliminated based on their ability to perform across various challenges.
One segment of the trailer showcases the contestants having to hide from United States Navy SEALs, where if found, they'll be eliminated...from the contest. Another clip showcased what seemed to be teams of participants pulling monster trucks forward, using cords attached to them.
In other news, MrBeast's show has been in the headlines for allegations of participant neglect and unsafe workplace practices, which has been covered by YouTubers such as Rosanna Pansino as well as by reports by news organizations such as Las Vegas-based KSNV (Channel 3),
These allegations were recently addressed by MrBeast, who labeled them as being "blown out of proportion," while promising to release behind-the-scenes content following the show's release.
