Some of your favorite reality TV personalities will return to our screens on April 23rd to compete in the new Netflix competition series Battle Camp.

Up for grabs is a $250,000 prize for the winner who can outwit their castmates and compete in a series of physical challenges to be the last woman or man standing.

Here is everything you need to know.

How Battle Camp works

Competitors are separated into three teams to compete in a variety of challenges, both physical and mental. In addition to voting on potential cast to be eliminated, the nominated players get their name on a wheel that randomly chooses someone to kick rocks with open-toed shoes, aka losing out on that cash prize.

There are two ways to stay safe: one, win the daily challenge to keep your name off the wheel of doom, and two, politic your way into the good graces of your castmates or at least stay off their radar, similar to MTV's The Challenge.

Who hosts Battle Camp?

Taylor Lewan leads the cast of stars from the Netflix reality universe through their weekly challenges and eliminations. Lewan is a former NFL player for the Tennessee Titans and co-hosts Bussin' with the Boys podcast on Barstool Sports.
