The Challenge All Stars: Rivals is the fifth installment in the All Stars series. This season features 13 pairs of rivals competing against each other for a share of the prize. Production took place between May and July 2024. It's the first All Stars season to air on MTV.

Description[]

On the heels of the legendary 40th season of The Challenge, the hit reality competition franchise brings its fan-favorite rivals twist to The Challenge All Stars. In a series first, the new season pairs up memorable power players and redemption seekers with their biggest rivals. The Challenge All Stars: Rivals will premiere Wednesday, January 29 at 8PM ET/PT on MTV.

Format[]

Teams will compete in several challenges followed by an elimination round known as "The Jungle." The winners of the challenge will be safe from elimination, and their Star will be exempt from being stolen if they possess one. The rest of the house will then vote in one team into the Arena. In the Jungle, the winners will choose the team that will go against the house's nominee. Winners without a Star also have the opportunity to volunteer for elimination.

Twists[]

  • Stars: Pairs must hold a Star in order to qualify for the Final Challenge. The Opening Challenge determined which four teams will be the initial Star Holders.

Notes[]

  1. The first four Star Holders were determined at the "Frenmies" challenge. There was no elimination held after.
  2. Due to the weather, Devin & Leroy, Melissa & Nicole, and Nany & Turbo were unable to compete in the "Edge of Glory" challenge. They were given the choice to either compete the next day or sit out completely. All teams chose to sit out, making Amber & Faysal the winners by default.
