Survivor: Edge of Extinction, the 38th season of the award-winning adventure reality series Survivor, premieres Thursday, February 21, at 7.30pm on 9Go!

The new season will be fast-tracked from America with episodes available to watch just hours after the USA, from 4.00pm AEDT the same day also on 9Now. 
 
Returning to the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji, Survivor: Edge of Extinction features 14 castaways competing for the first time, who will be joined by returning players Joe Anglim (“Worlds Apart,” “Second Chance”), Aubry Bracco (“Kaoh Rong,” “Game Changers”), Kelley Wentworth (“Second Chance,” “San Juan del Sur”) and David Wright (“Millennials vs. Gen-X”).
 
Divided into two tribes, the Manu Tribe and the Kama Tribe, the castaways will be severely tested when they are introduced to the island known as “Edge of Extinction”.
 
“Survivor continues to reinvent itself with new energy, and this season we’ve added a new secret, game-changing twist,” said executive producer and host Jeff Probst. “After being voted out, players will be faced with a decision to either go home or go to the ‘Edge of Extinction’ where they will be pushed further than ever before for a chance to get back in the game.”
 
Those who can withstand the difficult emotional and physical challenge of the island will be afforded a chance to get back in the game and continue their quest for $1 million. 
 
The new and returning castaways, who include a morning news anchor, a pre-med student, a waitress and a firefighter, will once again be forced to compete with the same ultimate goal: to outwit, outplay and outlast each other, and in the end, be the last one remaining to claim the title of Sole Survivor.
