One Episode. Two Teams. One Winner.
Each Challenge Zone episode brings together two five-person teams for one complete head-to-head matchup filled with interviews, four game rounds, sponsor moments and plenty of personality.
Ten contestants enter each episode. One team earns the win.
Simple Matchup. Big Energy.
Every episode centers on one competition between two teams.

5 Contestants VS. 5 Contestants.
Instead of putting all four season teams into one episode, each episode now focuses on one two-team matchup.
Two Teams Enter The Zone.
Red, Blue, Green and Yellow teams may appear throughout Season One, but each individual episode features only two teams. This gives contestants more screen time, creates stronger matchups and allows the show to tell more of their story.

The Challenge Zone is more than four games. Each episode is designed as a complete approximately 30-minute streaming show.
