The season began with five players, including Kyle Fraser, Joe Hunter, Eva Erickson, Kamilla Karthigesu, and Mitch Guerra.

At the Final Tribal Council, Kyle effectively showcased his strategic gameplay and social connections, outmanoeuvring Joe's challenge-based resume and Eva's emotional narrative tied to her autism journey. The jury ultimately awarded Kyle the win with a 5-2-1 vote split.
