Survivor Announces Game-Changing Twist for Milestone 50th Season That Gives Fans Power Like Never Before

Survivor is about to be in the hands of the fans.

CBS has announced a major twist for the upcoming milestone 50th season of the reality competition series that will have a major affect on players’ abilities to outwit, outplay and outlast their fellow contestants.

For the first time ever, fans will have the ability to shape the game by voting on key elements of the show, the network announced Feb. 24.

Starting on premiere day of Survivor 48 (Wednesday, Feb. 26), viewers can go to survivor50cbs.votenow.tv to vote in rounds including “Idols or No Idols,” “Final Four Fire Making: Keep It or Lose It” and “Live Finale and Reunion Show in L.A.—or Keep the Winner Reveal and Aftershow in the Jungles of Fiji.” Voting will conclude before filming on season 50 begins and players will have no idea which outcomes are headed their way.

And longtime host Jeff Probst couldn’t be more excited for the new twists and turns that lie ahead.
