Background
In February 2022, four international adaptations of The Challenge were announced: The Challenge: USA, The Challenge: Australia, The Challenge Argentina: El Desafío and The Challenge UK. The Challenge: World Championship is a special miniseries in which winners and select contestants of each series, known as Global MVPs, compete alongside cast members from the MTV series, known as Challenge legends. Sol Pérez, the sole winner of The Challenge Argentina: El Desafío, was unable to receive the required yellow fever vaccination in time.
Format
The series consists of a daily challenge, nomination process, winners' selection and an elimination round. The first episode had only the MVPs competing individually. After the first elimination, each MVP picked their Legend partner based on the order they completed the Qualifier challenge. In the daily challenge, the last-place team is automatically sent to the elimination round; the winning team is immune and selects a second team to compete. Teams other than the winners and last-place team vote for two teams to be nominated. The winners then vote between the two nominated teams to select the second team to face the last-place team in the Arena. The winners of the elimination remain; the defeated team is eliminated.
