Created by YouTuber MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson), Beast Games has now crowned its winners – and the ultimate winner of the series has bagged the biggest cash prize in entertainment history.

The Prime Video series was always lauded as having the largest cash prize in history but now, with a winner having now been crowned, we know just who has taken it home.

After plenty of physical, mental and strategic challenges, it was Player 831 (Jeffrey Randall Allen) who won Beast Games, beating 1000 contestants who were all competing for a $5 million prize pot.

Allen took home a whopping $10 million in the end, managing to beat other players who had taken bribes and lost along the way.

The final challenge saw player 831 go head-to-head with player 830 to find the suitcase containing a cheque for $10 million, having to pick between a number of them before finally finding the coveted one.

Amazon actually gave MrBeast creative control of Beast Games, and it's safe to say that the show has produced a mixture of reactions, but it's undeniable that the stakes are very high in this show.

Across the series, there were various cash prizes to still be had, with other contestants having left with a private island and other major chunks of money. So, while there was one winner of Beast Games, there were quite a few players that ended up taking home a very significant cheque.

MrBeast revealed that throughout the entirety of the series, more than $20 million had been given away to 85 (out of 1000) players, so that's certainly one for the books! Especially seeing as most entertainment shows rely on the premise of there only being one sole winner and everyone else losing out on things completely.

As for now, fans can watch the series back on Prime Video but in terms of the show's future, it's still not yet been confirmed if Prime Video will be renewing Beast Games for season 2.

MrBeast himself has said that he's "100 per cent" sure it'll be happening, despite no official news from the streamer.

He previously said in an interview: “I was told not to talk about [season 2 and season 3]. I love what we did with Beast Games. I’m doing it. I loved working with Prime Video so I’m sure we’re going to do it with them. 100 per cent. There’s no way we’re not.”

Beast Games is available to watch on Prime Video now – you can sign up now for a free 30-day Prime Video trial.
