To celebrate the 30th season of The Challenge, MTV is bringing back the dirtiest and most unpredictable players in The Challenge history for the biggest prize ever - $1 MILLION DOLLARS! This devious bunch will stop at nothing to win the game and compete against each other on The Challenge XXX: Dirty 30. Fifteen men and fifteen women will have to fight their way through some of the craziest, most daring challenges yet. And with this devious assortment of players, the backstabbing and masterminding will be just as intense off the field as on the field. Trust. No. One.
The season opens up with an opening competition known as "The Purge". The contestants will play as individuals and/or teams to avoid elimination. In the end, the bottom six players (3 males and 3 females) will be eliminated.
The game will then follow a similar format to Free Agents (click here for details) with the following differences:
The Draw will work differently this season. The bottom players of the challenge will draw out an X or a XX. The player that draws the XX will get to choose a player that will go against the player that was sent in by the challenge winners.
Similar to the Battle of the Ex-iled twist in Battle of the Exes II, eliminated players will compete in a series of loser's brackets known as "Redemption" for their shot to re-enter the game.
