The History Channel’s Alone adds a special twist for season 13, pitting survivalists from seven countries against each other for Alone: World Championship. This season’s competition will feature survivalists from the United States, Canada, Wales, Australia, Slovenia, Portugal, and New Zealand.
Season 13 is set to premiere on June 17, 2026, with new episodes airing on Wednesdays at 9pm ET/PT.
The History Channel released this description of the new season:
“On the heels of the World Cup and for the first time in franchise history, ten skilled survivalists from around the globe will compete in Alone: World Championship. Participants will be dropped inside Canada’s Arctic Circle with just ten survival tools and enough camera gear to self-document their experiences. As winter tightens its grip, survivalists will battle against punishing weather, relentless isolation, and menacing predators local to the region, such as grizzly bears, wolves, and moose.
Whoever survives the longest takes home the coveted $500,000 grand prize and will be crowned the first-ever Alone world champion. This is survival on an international stage, where reputation, legacy, and national pride are on the line.
No camera crews. No gimmicks. ALONE is the ultimate test of human will.”
Season 13’s competitors include Jacks Genega, Nero Buys, Aaron Barnard, Dave Booth, Ziga Ogorelec, Will Longley, Andrew Price, Clementino Pedrosa, Poldi Waldmann-Moloney, and David Young.
