Production[]
This season features eighteen castaways divided into three tribe of six. The full cast has been selected by three "legend" returning veterans. Each legend got the opportunity to build their own tribe of five other players to compete against the picks of the other legends - two former castaways and three new people. The tribes this season are named after places in Cyprus. They are Larnaca (Hermes insignia), wearing turquoise, Nicosia (Medusa insignia), in red, and Paphos (Zeus insignia), with orange. On Day 8, the tribes merged into Aphrodite, wearing white.
Three past legends - Andrew, Blake and Nick - were chosen by production to return as tribe captains, while the chosen legends hand-picked the rest of the cast themselves. The full cast plus tribal designations were revealed at the Puerto Rico reunion on May 29, 2016.
Twists[]
- Bloodlines: Each returning legend had the opportunity to build and captain their own tribe of five players - two returning, three new - to create a team of people which could help them to victory.
- Tribes of the Future: The swap tribes were revealed on Day 1, allowing castaways to know what tribe they will be swapped in to, forcing them to determine who they need to keep around and who they need to take out, to ensure they have a sturdy force to control the tribe.
- Hero Duels: At every Immunity Challenge, only one of the three tribes would gain Immunity. The second Immunity would be decided by two selected individuals, playing in a condensed version of the same challenge. The individuals who were selected to participate in each duel were decided by the three tribe captains.
- Three-Tribe Format: This season the castaways were once again divided into three tribes, returning for the third consecutive season following Unfinished Business and Puerto Rico. It is the eleventh season to feature the format, and the fourth to use it for a returnee/newbie mix season, after Reclamation, Kiribati and Puerto Rico.
- Returning Players: Three former players returned this season, dubbed "legends" for their known status in the history of the series, and selected due to their disappointment with their previous placement. Each picked two other one-time past players, resulting a total of nine returning players. The three legends were Andrew T., Blake B. and Nick M..
- Tribe Switch: On Day 5, the Larnaca, Nicosia, and Paphos tribes underwent an three-way tribe switch, mixing up the tribes. These tribes were already pre-decided by Tribes of the Future.
- Double Tribal Council: On Day 9, due to the One Day Tribes twist, two people were voted out of the game back-to-back following the Prized Position Challenge.
- One Day Tribes: On Day 9, the ten remaining castaways were divided back into two tribes, just for a Double Tribal Council that day, before reverting back to a normal merged tribe. Carl picked one person to join him on his tribe. He chose Chazz.
- Hidden Immunity Idols: There was one hidden idol placed in each tribe camp, which can be found by correctly guessing the answer to the clues sent daily to the two immune tribes. There was also an extra hidden idol in the post-merge camp, which was found and played early, so replaced with another idol.
- Extra Vote: This season featured an extra vote as a prize in the Prized Position challenge. It was won by David C.
