The new gameshow series Deal or No Deal Island is scheduled to premiere on NBC Monday, Feb. 26 at 9:30/8:30c.
According to NBC, the new spin on the classic game show will involve 13 players who are sent to the Banker’s private island to compete in a season-long competition.
The iconic briefcases are back, but this time they’ll be hidden around the Banker’s island. They will hold millions is prize money that contestants can split amongst each other.
A recent press release from NBC states, “In each episode, players vie to get their hands on the highest-value briefcase for a chance to gain immunity and choose a fellow player to enter The Temple, where they must play a high-stakes game of Deal or No Deal. The devious Banker is always watching and will raise the stakes with tests of strategy and greed. At the end of the season, the last player standing will face the Banker to potentially win the biggest prize in Deal or No Deal history.”
