The Challenge is returning for another new season in January, and this time the contestants will take on their own personal vendettas. The Challenge: Vendettas will premiere on January 2.

MTV revealed more about the return of this series in a press release. Check that out below.

“MTV today announced The Challenge: Vendettas, will premiere on Tuesday, January 2. Twenty-eight players including stars from MTV UK’s Ex on the Beach and Geordie Shore along with contestants from Big Brother will join The Challenge fan favorites as they travel to Spain to pursue their personal vendettas against one another. And this season, for the very first time, every player is out solely for themselves, not their team. Only one winner will come out on top, competing to win the final prize that has the potential to exceed $500,000.

The winners of each challenge will receive money for their individual bank accounts, but once players are eliminated, their money is added to the final prize pot. In a major game twist this season, “Grenades” will be awarded to players surviving grueling elimination rounds, giving them a chance to get back at anyone else in the house they may have a vendetta against. With everyone out for themselves, stealing an entire bank account from another player, forcing players to be shackled together during another challenge or selecting players to stay up the entire night before a challenge, will surely shake up the competition and heighten the drama, doubt, and deception in the house.
