Prime Video unveils Beast Games season 2 premiere

CULVER CITY, California — Prime Video has set Jan. 7, 2026, as the premiere date for the second season of Beast Games, the record-breaking global competition series created by Jimmy Donaldson, also known as MrBeast.

The first three episodes will debut on Jan. 7, with new episodes dropping weekly until the Season Two finale on Feb. 25.

Prime Video also released a first-look preview of the show’s signature Beast City, which returns with a new roster of fierce competitors and a “Strong vs. Smart” storyline that will drive the season.

The debut season of Beast Games became Prime Video’s most-watched unscripted series, drawing 50 million viewers within 25 days on the platform.

The show has already been renewed for a third season, as confirmed during Amazon’s upfront presentation in May.

Season Two raises the stakes as MrBeast brings together 100 of the world’s strongest competitors and 100 of the world’s smartest minds in a high-intensity showdown for a USD 5,000,000 prize.

The “Strong vs. Smart” format will challenge physical strength, mental acuity, and strategic gameplay as alliances form, trust falters, and competitors confront the limits of endurance and intellect.

Donaldson returns as host and executive producer alongside Sean Klitzner, Tyler Conklin, and Mack Hopkins, who also serve as co-creators.

Sean Klitzner and Matt Apps will act as showrunners and executive producers, joined by Michael Cruz, Jeff Housenbold, Tyler Conklin, Michael Miller, Josh Kulic, and Chris Keiper.

Conklin will return as the series director.

Beast Games will stream exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories.
