Ten new participants must survive in the desert as they face extreme temperatures, new species of predators and a host of exhausting challenges.

Participants are forced to use their wits when left in the wilderness with nothing but a backpack; struggling with harsh weather, hostile locations and aggressive wildlife.

The remaining survivalists make a final push to the finish line; one survivalist, desperate for food, finds promise in the local antelope, while another contends with the emotional burden of leaving their family.

Survivalist Dug North showcases the art of wilderness living, putting his bushcraft and survival skills into practice.

The Karoo Desert's heat and lack of shade continue to force the survivalists to focus on water or risk dehydration.

In the aftermath of a freak storm, the remaining survivalists take stock of their place in the game; one participant takes a risk on an ambitious shelter, while another unknowingly finds themselves poised on a knife's edge.
