Amazon Prime vs. Netflix: MrBeast Game Show vs. Squid Game Season – Benzinga
Get ready for some exciting new content hitting your screens soon! A brand new game show from the popular YouTuber MrBeast is set to premiere on Amazon’s Prime Video on December 19th. This show, called Beast Games, promises to be a real treat for fans of the YouTuber and game show enthusiasts alike.
With an impressive 332 million subscribers on YouTube, MrBeast is a force to be reckoned with in the world of online entertainment. Known for his fun challenge videos, like the recent “$1 vs $50,000 Experiences” that has garnered over 111 million views, MrBeast’s new game show is highly anticipated.
Beast Games will feature 10 episodes where 1,000 players will compete for a whopping $5 million prize in various challenges. According to Variety, the show is set to break world records and boasts some of the craziest sets ever seen in the entertainment world.
The show’s creator, MrBeast, has poured his heart and soul into making Beast Games a success. In a tweet, he mentioned spending over a year crafting the show and creating something truly epic that viewers are sure to love.
Fans can look forward to the first two episodes of Beast Games premiering on December 19th, with subsequent episodes releasing weekly. What’s interesting is that the show will hit Amazon’s streaming platform just one week before Netflix releases the highly anticipated second season of “Squid Game” on December 26th.
While Beast Games is not a direct copy of “Squid Game,” there are some similarities between the two shows, particularly in the games and outfits featured. MrBeast has even previously paid tribute to “Squid Game” by creating a real-life version of the challenges, with a cash prize of $456,000 for the winner.
In the lead-up to the release of Beast Games, there have been some legal issues brewing. Contestants have filed lawsuits against MrBeast, his production company, and Amazon, alleging issues with medical care, working conditions, and wages. MrBeast has addressed these claims, stating that they have been blown out of proportion and that behind-the-scenes footage will reveal the truth.
Despite these challenges, Beast Games promises to be an exciting addition to Amazon’s lineup of game shows, joining other popular titles like “Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?” and the upcoming “Pop Culture Jeopardy!”
So mark your calendars for December 19th and get ready to dive into the world of Beast Games for an entertaining and thrilling experience you won’t want to miss!
