Hosted by two-time player and winner of Australian Survivor: All Stars, David Genat, this will be an unmissable season set to push players to the brink. Over 45 days, players will battle the elements, hunger, exhaustion, and each other in the hopes of making it to the end and taking home the title of Sole Survivor and a life-changing $500,000.
