This new game show will explore the idea of anonymity


The Traitors was one of the most talked about shows of 2024, and fans were thrilled to hear there may be multiple new seasons on the way. But in the meantime, get ready for The Anonymous: a brand-new game show from Studio Lambert, the production company behind the BBC’s hit TV show, as well as Netflix’s Squid Game: The Challenge.

The Anonymous: What To Expect

What Will The Anonymous Be About?

USA Network’s new upcoming reality show The Anonymous will see a group of contestants taking part in a game of social strategy, which hinges on anonymity. There will be two layers: players will interact in the ‘real world’, while also communicating online, where they’ll be able to advance their game in private hideouts known as ‘Anonymous Mode’. The goal is to try and guess the identity of other players – and keep your own hidden. ‘What would you say if nobody was watching you?’ asks the tagline.

When Will The Anonymous Be Released?

It’s a long way off yet, as filming hasn’t yet begun. When it does, it will take place in Europe, executive produced by Stephen Lambert, Jack Burgess, Tim Harcourt, Toni Ireland, Stephen Yemoh and Andy Cadman.

Who Will Host The Show?

A host is yet to be announced.
