7 vs. Wild enters its third season on Amazon Freevee
After its official announcement, it didn’t take long for a major potential partner to contact the 7 vs. Wild team, Meinecke explains in one YouTube video to the new season.
“A partner who was willing to support us in every way, but – very importantly – without influencing the content of the series and allowing us to continue to offer the content for free.” The partner’s name is Amazon Freevee.

Freevee will be showing all episodes of Season 3 in advance. This means that impatient fans of the show can watch the offer on the official 7 vs. Wild YouTube channel before it is released. Because the team also makes all episodes available there – including behind-the-scenes material and reaction videos.
For the new season Meinecke and his team expand the field of participants to a total of 14 protagonists who will fight for survival – including Joey Kelly and Andreas Kieling. They are divided into seven groups of two people each.
