Survivor: Australia V The World, also known as Australian Survivor: Australia V The World, is the ongoing thirteenth season of Australian Survivor which premiered on Network 10 on 17 August 2025 [2] and is based on the international reality competition franchise Survivor .
In this special shortened all-star crossover season celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Network 10 iteration of Australian Survivor, 14 former Survivor contestants from both Australia and around the world return to play Survivor in Samoa and are divided into two tribes: the "Aussie" tribe, which consists of Australian contestants, and the "World" tribe, which consists of contestants from other versions of Survivor. [3] Over 16 days, they will compete for a grand prize of A$250,000. Network 10 confirmed in June 2025 that this would be Jonathan LaPaglia's final season as host. [4]
The contestants are divided into two tribes based on their respective Survivor franchises they started on; either the Aussie tribe, which consists of contestants from Australian Survivor , or the World tribe with contestants from other versions including Finland's Selviytyjät Suomi , New Zealand's Survivor NZ , South Africa's Survivor South Africa , the United States' Survivor and the French Canadian edition, Survivor Québec . [5] The first six players revealed at Network 10's upfronts were Australian representatives George, Kirby and Shonee, and American representatives Cirie, Parvati and Tony for the World Tribe. [6] [7] The full cast was officially announced on 13 April 2025, with the first preview airing that night along with the penultimate episode of Brains V Brawn II . [8]
In addition to the various past appearances of the contestants on Survivor and other reality shows, the series notably reunites David Genat and Parvati Shallow, who previously competed together on the second season of the American series Deal or No Deal Island , which was filmed shortly before Australia V The World and aired in early 2025 on NBC in America and 10Play in Australia.
Cirie Fields competed on Survivor US 50: In the Hands of the Fans , which filmed in mid-2025 and is set to air in 2026. [9]

271 | 1 | "The Multiverse" | Days 1–2 | 17 August 2025 | |
Fourteen returning players arrive in Samoa and are divided into two tribes: "Team Aussie", consisting of seven Australians with one former winner (David), and "Team World", consisting of seven players from around the world with four former winners (Parvati, Rob, Lisa and 2-Time winner Tony).
Team World wins four of the seven reward items, including a locked box with a mystery item inside. During the challenge, David openly strategises with Rob, offering him a cross-tribe alliance and suggesting he vote out the Americans first. At the World beach, Tony, Parvati and Cirie bond straight away, vowing to protect one another as the biggest threats. Cirie also bonds with Lisa, who vows to never betray her, and Parvati reaches out to Rob, telling him that she and David previously played Deal or No Deal Island together and both want to work with him. However, Rob and the other non-Americans view the Americans as too dangerous and plot to keep their numbers advantage and vote them out. At the Aussie beach, George seeks to make amends with Shonee, but she doesn't want to work with him again, instead bonding with Kirby. George also attempts to bond with David and Luke, but they too are wary of him, seeing George as an easy first vote out.
Team Aussie wins immunity. After the challenge, Rob asks David and Luke to look for a key on their beach to the box he won at reward, which Parvati overhears. Back at World beach, Rob openly asks Parvati who she wants to vote for and suggests going after Cirie to keep the tribe strong. Tommi and Kass separately approach Cirie and Tony about potentially voting out Parvati; they say yes but privately don't want her out. Lisa is annoyed by Rob's commandeering play style and considers joining the Americans to blindside him instead. At Tribal Council, the World tribe discusses the speed of the gameplay and the amount of cross-talk between tribes thus far. Parvati points out how aggressively Rob has been playing from a power position. Rob exposes Parvati's history with David and points out how big of a threat she will be post-merge. However, when the votes are read, Rob is voted out of the tribe unanimously. | |||||
272 | 2 | "Kings and Queens and Gods" | Days 3–4 | 18 August 2025 | |
At the Aussie beach, Luke steals the tribe's bananas from the previous reward challenge, sharing them only with Shonee and David to build trust. He also finds a hidden immunity idol and does not tell anyone about it. David attempts to bond with Kirby, but she is nervous about his threat level. She approaches George about potentially blindsiding him, while George favors the safer vote-out of Janine. Sarah bonds with Kirby and strongly considers joining her for a David blindside. At the World beach, Parvati is concerned about the shifting tribe dynamics and considers forming a new women's alliance to stay safe. Tony notices the girls' majority and worries that Cirie and Parvati won't remain loyal to him.
Team World wins immunity. George fears for his own safety and warns David that Kirby is pushing for his vote-out. Kirby becomes upset by this and considers voting out George, which David also pushes for her to consider. Sarah doesn't want to appear shifty to her new allies and promises to vote David, but privately wants to keep him and tries to switch the vote onto George. At Tribal Council, David calls attention to Kirby's strong gameplay thus far. Kirby whispers to her allies to keep the vote on David, and Sarah reaffirms her desire to remain loyal. David realizes that she is not with him and attempts to switch the vote to Shonee, but switches back to George at the last minute. George and David each receive three votes to Janine's one; on the re-vote, David is sent home. | |||||
273 | 3 | "An Eye for An Eye" | Day 5 | 19 August 2025 | |
At the Aussie beach, George lies when Luke says he wanted Shonee out and tries to paint Luke as untrustworthy. Shonee worries about the difficulty of getting out George and wonders if she made a mistake in not voting him out. Sarah feels threatened by Shonee's relationship with Kirby, and begins to rally votes against Shonee to solidify her own position. At the World beach, Tony worries about the female majority on the tribe threatening his position. He begins searching for a key to the locked box the tribe won at the first reward challenge, but Parvati finds it first. She tells the other girls about it, and they concoct a plan to draw Tony away from camp so they can open the box, which contains a clue to a hidden immunity idol, located underneath Jonathan's podium at Tribal Council. Kass also finds her own idol on the beach, which she decides to keep secret.
Team World wins immunity. At the Aussie beach, George concocts a split vote plan on Janine and Luke and attempts to pit them against each other. However, Shonee is irritated by George sharing information with the other tribe at the challenge and wants him out. The rest of the tribe weighs the benefits of blindsiding George versus Shonee heading into a merge. At Tribal Council, most of the tribe feels more confident and unified about tonight's plan than last tribal. Janine worries that George has an idol and asks Luke to split his vote onto Shonee for protection. When the votes are read, George is voted out in a 3–2–1 vote over Shonee and Luke. | |||||
274 | 4 | "When the Other Shoe Drops" | Days 6–7 | 24 August 2025 | |
At the World beach, Parvati plans to keep the girls strong and ensure that a guy goes home next, but doesn't want Tony out yet because he is useful as a shield. Kass believes Tony is too dangerous and that Tommi will remain loyal at the merge. Cirie worries that the international players are too loyal to one another. At the Aussie beach, Janine and Luke feel at the bottom of the tribe but vow to stick together to the end. Sarah tells Janine that she's uncertain about Kirby, and Janine relays this to Kirby to convince her to flip on her alliance.
Parvati and Sarah win immunity, and Jonathan reveals that only one person will be going home tonight. At the Aussie beach, Kirby is upset that her planned target is now immune. Shonee begins rallying votes against Janine, but Luke doesn't want her out and works to flip the vote onto Shonee. At the World beach, Tony feels uneasy and tries to listen in on the girls' conversations. Kass and Lisa begin to worry that Parvati is untrustworthy and talks to Cirie about flipping on Tony. Tony decides to cause chaos at tribal council to disrupt the girls' plans. At Tribal Council, Jonathan informs both tribes that one representative from each tribe will compete in a fire-making challenge against one another, chosen by random rock draw, with the winner earning safety for their entire tribe. Sarah and Cirie draw the white rocks, and Sarah wins the fire-making challenge, sending the Aussie tribe back to camp. Tony begins to whisper asking for names, accuses Parvati of finding the key to the lock box, and claims to have an idol, causing the girls to worry about their plan. While the girls talk in private, Tony schemes with Tommi to convince the other international players to vote for Cirie. However, when the votes are read, Tony is sent home unanimously. Before leaving Tribal Council, Parvati grabs the idol from beneath Jonathan's podium. | |||||
275 | 5 | "Piss or Get Off the Pot" | Days 8–9 | 25 August 2025 | |
At the World beach, Parvati feels more comfortable now that she has the idol. The tribe is nervous about a potential 5-5 deadlock at the merge, but all hope to stay World strong for at least the first vote. The next day, both tribes arrive at the reward challenge and learn that they are officially merged.
During the auction, Luke wins an advantage to send one player back to camp immediately, angering Parvati when he chooses her. However, when she gets to camp, she finds a jar of cookies waiting for her, which she elects to keep to herself. The jar also contains an advantage, allowing her to steal another player's idol if she guesses they have one correctly. Luke hopes to keep the Aussies strong at the merge, but Shonee considers flipping as she only feels loyal to Kirby. Sarah and Kirby both express interest in working with Parvati and Cirie, and throw one another under the bus to curry favor with the Americans.
Production halts the challenge halfway through due to a lightning storm. Jonathan offers the four remaining players in the challenge a chance to draw rocks for immunity, otherwise no one is safe; the players agree, and Tommi draws the white rock to win immunity. Back at camp, players attempt to strategize while sheltering from the storm. The Aussies plan to vote for Kass while the World players plan to vote for Janine. However, Shonee and Kirby approach the World tribe about blindsiding Sarah. The World tribe are nervous about whether Kirby is telling the truth and consider shifting their vote elsewhere. Luke learns that Kirby is targeting Sarah and begs her to reconsider to keep the majority. At Tribal Council, Kass expresses suspicion about how many names were being thrown around today. Cirie says that tonight's vote will determine the dynamics for the rest of the game. Parvati hopes that there won't be a rock draw and the tribe can come to a unified decision. Lisa whispers to Cirie, worried that someone will play an idol on Sarah. However, no idols are played, and Sarah is sent home in a 4–3–3 vote over Janine and Kass. | |||||
276 | 6 | "My Fire Breathing Dragon" | Day 10 | 26 August 2025 | |
Kirby and Parvati commit to work together until the end, but both are nervous that the other will blindside them. Kass and Lisa feel like Parvati is ignoring them and worry that they're being left out of the new majority alliance. Luke and Janine strategize from the bottom of the tribe, and plan to enact revenge against their fellow Aussies who flipped. Janine tells Parvati that Kass is threatened by her, causing Parvati to consider voting her out.
Kass outlasts Parvati to win immunity, along with a scroll that can't be read until the following morning. Parvati and Kirby plan to break up the international alliance by targeting Lisa. Shonee and Luke scheme with the international players to blindside Cirie. Janine and Cirie discuss how untrustworthy Kirby is and consider going after her next. Parvati worries that she will become an easy next target if Kirby is voted out, and considers playing her idol to save Kirby tonight. At Tribal Council, Luke points out how Kirby betrayed Sarah at the last vote, proving she can't be trusted as an ally. The tribe discusses how common lying is in the game and how hard it is to trust anyone. Cirie hopes that tonight's vote will tell her who she can trust moving forward. When the votes are read, Kirby is voted out 6–2–1 over Cirie and Lisa. | |||||
277 | 7 | "Tastes Like Victory" | Day 11 | 31 August 2025 | |
Parvati and Cirie express mixed feelings about Kirby going home. Luke apologizes to Cirie for voting for her and tells her that the international players were considering flipping on her. The next morning, Kass reads the scroll she won at yesterday’s challenge, which invites her to an afternoon at the Survivor Spa along with three guests; she chooses Parvati, Cirie, and Tommi. The group debate whether to target Luke or Shonee next, and Parvati tells Cirie about her steal-an-idol advantage. Back at camp, Luke, Janine and Shonee smash open the locked box and find it empty, realizing that someone in the majority has an idol.
Tommi wins immunity. The World players scheme to eliminate one of the Aussies, but privately, Tommi wants to go after Parvati. Lisa tells Luke and Shonee about the plan, but Luke doesn’t trust her after the last vote. Parvati begins to suspect that she is being targeted for a blindside. At Tribal Council, Janine and Luke begin to whisper about flipping their vote to Lisa, causing Parvati to pull Kass aside and ask if she’s going after her, which Kass denies. Parvati pulls out her idol and suggests that she might play it for herself or Cirie tonight. Luke tells Parvati that Lisa brought up her name today, and the Aussies tells Cirie they are voting for Lisa. Parvati pulls Luke aside and suggests targeting Kass first as a bigger threat than Lisa. Before the votes are read, Kass attempts to play her idol, but Parvati reveals her advantage, threatening to steal it. Kass promises she’s playing it for Lisa, and Parvati declines to use her advantage, allowing her to do so. When the votes are read, Kass is sent home 5-2-1 over Luke and Shonee. Jonathan then informs the tribe that there will be another immunity challenge and vote tonight, taking them straight to the challenge area.
Luke wins immunity. Back at Tribal Council, Parvati says she plans to vote for Tommi, and Tommi attempts to convince the Aussies that Parvati is too dangerous with all her advantages. Luke worries that Lisa will come after him next if she isn’t sent home tonight, and considers keeping Tommi. Lisa openly contemplates quitting the game to protect Tommi, but decides against it. When the votes are read, Tommi is voted out 5–1–1 over Cirie and Janine. | |||||
278 | 8 | "Episode 8" | Days 12–13 | 1 September 2025 | |
Lisa attempts to mend relationships back at camp, but nobody trusts her. She attempts to sow seeds of doubt with Luke to split him up from the other Aussies, but he doesn’t want to work with her. She also tells Parvati that everyone wants her out.
Luke wins immunity. Janine and Luke discuss Shonee’s threat level, and aren’t sure if they want to go to the end with her. Lisa tells Shonee that Luke and Janine are a tight pair and suggests breaking them up by voting Janine. Cirie feels close with Lisa and considers trying to save her. Luke tells Parvati about his idol, and offers her a final three deal in exchange for ripping her steal-an-idol advantage in half; she accepts and gives him the other half. At Tribal Council, the tribe discusses shifting dynamics after two World members went home last night. Parvati believes her position in the game is stronger with the international players out of the game. Lisa points out that there are only three spots in the final tribal council, and not everyone in the majority can get there. However, when the votes are read, Lisa is voted out unanimously. | |||||
279 | 9 | "Episode 9" | Day 14 | 2 September 2025 | |
The tribe schemes to vote out Shonee next, but Parvati worries that Luke and Janine will not honor their final four deal and go after Cirie. Janine hopes to convince Cirie and Parvati that they should take her to final three over Luke. Shonee begins to plant seeds of doubt in Parvati that Janine is a bigger threat than she realizes.
Luke wins immunity. Shonee is worried about the two pairs left in the game and hopes to pit them against each other. Parvati worries that Luke will play his idol for Shonee and get rid of Cirie. Luke lies to everyone about having an idol, and considers doing something crazy with it tonight. At Tribal Council, Parvati pulls out her idol to indicate she is safe tonight. Luke pulls Janine aside and asks for her loyalty at final four; when she agrees, he gives Janine his immunity necklace and pulls out his own idol. Both Parvati and Luke suggest that they might play their idols for someone else. Cirie feels nervous about having no protection but believes she has built enough trust to survive tonight. Before the votes are read, Parvati and Luke looked to play their idols, but were cautious as to what the other would do - they playfully agreed to play their idols for each other, and Shonee is voted out 4–1 over Cirie. |
