IT’S CHALLENGE SEASON BABY! As The Real World draws to a close we say goodbye to the house full of characters and hello to A NEW SEASON OF THE CHALLENGE! The cast features a slew of #TMITuesday features and best of all? CT IS BACK!

Entertainment Weekly and MTV reported the season’s new twist, cast and theme. Check it out:

“The new season, titled The Challenge: Invasion will feature 18 series “underdogs” competing to earn their way out of The Shelter, their desolate, barebones accommodations in Thailand. If they’re able to battle their way out of The Shelter, they’ll land in the posh estate of The Oasis. Only 12 underdogs will earn their spot in The Oasis, but that’s only step one of their (literal) challenge.

The season’s twist involves a surprise, season-long attack from eight of the “most fearsome Challenge Champions,” including repeat champion Johnny “Bananas,” and the return of CT following his three-year absence as a competitor on the show.”

For those who make it to the very end, they will have to compete in the show’s very first three-day challenge to take home the grand prize of $350,000.
