Koh-Lanta: L'Île des Héros is the 24th season of Koh-Lanta, the French version of Survivor.
Production
This season was originally planned to run 11 episodes. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, four episodes (5-6, 8-9, 12-13, and 14-15) were divided in two parts, in hopes that lockdown would be over in time for the live finale reunion. This decision payed out, as lockdown in France ended in May and the reunion was able to be held on June 5.
Twists
- Newbies vs. Veterans: For this season, there are 5 returning players who will compete against 14 new players.
- Island of the Heroes: At the beginning of the game, the five returning players are sent to a Heroes' Island where they will have to fend for themselves during the first few rounds of the game. They will have two opportunities to earn their spot in the game, by a winning a challenge. When both challenges have been run and four veterans have joined a tribe, the remaining one is sent packing.
- Immunity Necklaces: A first challenge is held at the marooning, before the tribes are formed, where two Immunity Necklaces (equivalent of Hidden Immunity Idols in Koh-Lanta) are up for grabs. The first necklace is only working at the first Tribal Council the holder attends, while the second necklace, harder to retrieve, is working util the merge.
- Replacements: Due to three evacuations, three castaways returned into the game after being eliminated.
- Ambassadors: Each tribe chooses a hero and a newbie from the opposite tribe to become the ambassadors. Their purpose is to directly eliminate a castaway from the game, and if the four ambassadors do not agree on a name, one of the four is eliminated. First a rock draw is held to determine which team loses the meeting and the two losers battle it out for their spot in the game.
- Black Vote: The black vote keeps the mechanics introduced in Cambodge: starting from the first post-merge Tribal Council, the person voted out gives to a remaining castaway the power to vote twice at the following Tribal Council.
- Penalty Vote after Challenge: Four castaways received a penalty vote after they finished in last place in a post-merge challenge.
- Tied Destinies: On Day 22, the ten people remaining are divided into five pairs by a rock draw. Until the next Tribal Council, the fate of each contestant is linked to their partner: the challenges are competed by pairs, and the person voted out at Tribal Council causes their partner's demise.
- Elimination Challenge: The castaway finishing last in the challenge Immunity Challenge on Day 30 is directly eliminated from the game.
