The second season of "Beast Games," hosted by YouTube megastar Jimmy Donaldson, also known as MrBeast, is set to premiere on Prime Video on January 7, 2026. The record-breaking global competition series will launch with its first three episodes on that date, followed by weekly releases, culminating in the season finale on February 25.

Season 2 introduces a compelling "Strong vs. Smart" format, pitting 100 of the world's strongest competitors against 100 of the world's smartest minds. These 200 participants will battle for a grand prize of $5 million. Prime Video's description teases a season where "players face off in the ultimate collision of brain and biceps; alliances will form and trust will break". The challenges will test the limits of human strength, intelligence, and strategy, raising the question: "What wouldn't you do for $5,000,000?".

Prime Video has also shared a first-look teaser of the competition series' Beast City.

The inaugural season of "Beast Games" was a massive success, becoming Prime Video's most-watched unscripted show ever, achieving 50 million viewers in just 25 days. Due to its popularity, "Beast Games" has already been renewed for a third season.

Donaldson is returning as host and executive producer. The series is co-created by Sean Klitzner, Tyler Conklin, and Mack Hopkins. Klitzner also serves as showrunner alongside Matt Apps. Executive producers include Klitzner, Apps, Michael Cruz, Jeff Housenbold, Tyler Conklin, Michael Miller, Josh Kulic, and Chris Keiper. Tyler Conklin will also be returning as the series director.

"Beast Games" will be available on Prime Video in over 240 countries and territories worldwide. A Prime membership, which includes Prime Video, is priced at $14.99 per month or $139 annually. Discounted membership options are available, offering the same benefits at 50% of the cost.
