PREY VS PREDATOR: THE HUNT AXED BY CHANNEL 4 AFTER ONE SERIES DUE TO POOR RATINGS

Channel 4 have confirmed that The Hunt: Prey Vs Predator will not be returning for a second series.

A spokesperson for Channel 4 said: "We are all about trying new things, and over the last couple of months we’ve landed major new hits with Secret Genius and Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing. We’re proud that The Hunt: Prey vs Predator was another distinctive and original new British format. But sadly, it did not do as well as we would have liked so we have had to make some tough decisions about bringing it back."

From CPL Productions, the masterminds behind Married at First Sight UK, with GroupM Motion Entertainment, comes The Hunt: Prey Vs Predator - a heart-pounding, high-stakes game of predator versus prey, where there is only one rule – hunt or be hunted.

Deep in a vast unforgiving forest, contestants are dropped into the ultimate real-world game of hide and seek - where losing means walking away with nothing and winning could mean pocketing up to £100,000. Surviving the game isn’t about being the fastest. It’s about being the smartest.

Each episode is built around a tense, dog-eat-dog hunt, where each player becomes either a Predator or Prey. The Prey hold the cash, desperately trying to protect their winnings while completing challenges to win more money. The Predators must hunt them down and steal their cash. If they succeed their roles are reversed and the entire game flips, with Predators suddenly become Prey.

Wearing cutting-edge tracking technology, no player can hide for long in the dense forest hunting ground. Each player must keep moving to remain in the game or forfeit their money.

Clever alliances, strategic teamwork, and mind games are the key to survival as at the end of each hunt, back at a futuristic basecamp it’s time, one player will face elimination from the game.

With every episode, the intensity escalates, fortunes shift, alliances shatter, and only the sharpest, strongest, and savviest will make it to the final showdown. Who will master the chase? Who will outthink the hunt? And who will walk away with the life-changing prize?

The Hunt: Prey Vs Predator is available now on Channel 4.
