The Traitors prize: How much do contestants win?
A lot is at stake.
The much-loved game of betrayal is back for another season on BBC One, where a new group of 22 strangers will take on some truly epic challenges in The Traitors.
The missions in season 2 have been teased by Claudia Winkleman, praising the producers for the new games that have been introduced.
She said: "The missions are incredibly important as it is a chance for the contestants to switch off from strategising and plotting. They get fresh air, they run around, they work as a team. The scale this year is beyond."
The missions the players will face are the most important parts of the game, as that is when they can build up a huge cash prize which just one or a few players will get their hands on at the end of the competition.
So, how much exactly can be won? Read on to find out more.
