The Ninjas Are Back!
American Ninja Warrior is back in full swing! With Season 17’s rousing success, the ninjas are back and ready for action for a brand new season. The season will feature something never before seen. The season includes a $250,000 cash prize for the winner. Packed with fresh twists and high-octane entertainment, it’s time to break it all down.
Watch Epic Ninja Races on NBC
American Ninja Warrior is a premier fitness competition that features elite athletes who train relentlessly for a shot at glory. Contestants face a series of grueling obstacle courses designed to test their strength. Catch all the action on NBC or stream it on Peacock. According to Deadline, this season will take place in Las Vegas and welcomes back fan-favorite hosts Matt Iseman, Akbar Gbajabiamila, and Zuri Hall.
Three-Lane Ninja Battles Debut
Adding to the pressure is this season’s mind-blowing $250 million cash prize.
This staggering sum has drawn elite athletes, seasoned veterans, and ambitious newcomers alike, all hungry for a shot at glory. The prize has transformed the competition into a high-stakes battleground, where every misstep could cost thousands of dollars. With such a lucrative reward on the line, expect the competition to get intense.
One of the biggest shakeups this season is the introduction of three-lane battles. Traditionally, ninjas competed head to head, or solo against various obstacles. Now, ninjas will now have to face up against two other opponents simultaneously. This new format adds a layer of intensity and strategy to the show. This also makes the path to victory much harder for the ninjas. With only one advancing, the stakes are higher than ever before.
The Ninjas Emerge From the Shadows
Season 18 is set to begin filming this fall and has already generated some buzz after the success of Season 17. Season 18 of American Ninja Warrior is slated for a 2026 release. Catch up with the ninjas by streaming Season 17 on Peacock.
