Hosted by "game master" Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Destination X will begin production on its new season later this year.

Complete strangers, who consider themselves to be adventurous, will board a blacked-out Destination X bus and embark on an epic road trip with no idea of their location or future stops.

In order to win, the contestants must try to figure out their mystery locations by competing in challenges designed to offer clues. However, there will also be a few "misdirects" to keep the players guessing.

At the end of each episode, the contestant who places an X on a map farthest from his or her actual location will be eliminated from the journey.

The first person to reach Jeffrey at the final Destination X location will be crowned the winner and receive a $250,000 grand prize.

Casting for Season 2 of the travel competition series is currently underway, and people are encouraged to apply on https://dx.castingcrane.com/.  

"Destination X is returning with the world as our playground to deliver new unforgettable adventures that will keep viewers guessing every step of the way," NBC executive Sharon Vuong said in a statement.

"With the incomparable Jeffrey Dean Morgan back at the helm, Season 2 promises to deliver surprising twists and push boundaries even further."

Universal Television Alternative Studio executive Toby Gorman added, "Destination X pushes the boundaries of what unscripted television can deliver with a truly global experience that feels cinematic, exhilarating and unlike anything else on TV."

Toby added, "With this new season, we're dialing everything up even more, taking both the contestants and the audience on adventures that are bigger, bolder and completely unexpected."  

Destination X is a travel competition series based on the Belgium format, which debuted in 2023.

The show's first season featured Europe as the players' real-life gameboard, and the season featured The Bachelor alum Peter Weber and Big Brother alum Josh Martinez.

Destination X is produced by Twofour, which is a part of ITV Studios, and Universal Television Alternative Studio, which is a division of Universal Studio Group. 

Andy Cadman, Dan Adamson, Darren Brown, Emmanuel Vanderjeudg, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Shireen Abbott, and Sophie Alcock are serving as executive producers.

Destination X was the No. 1 new show of the summer and reached more than 20 million viewers across all platforms. It's also available for streaming on Peacock.

The show's Season 2 premiere date and cast will be announced at a later date.
