How to stream 'The Challenge' Season 40? All you need to know about MTV's ‘Battle of the Eras’
HANOI, VIETNAM: 'The Challenge' will only air on MTV for its future season. The episodes won't be aired on Paramount+ the next day, unlike previous seasons or 'All Stars'.
You'll have to witness it live. Additionally, unlike in the past, MTV no longer airs the prior episode before the current one.
The only option to watch Hulu+Live or the Disney Bundle without having to deal with VPNs and unreliable movie websites is to pay for it, even though it's something you don't want to do.
When using live TV services like Fubo TV, Hulu with Live TV, and Sling TV, you can watch MTV if you don't have traditional cable or satellite television. On the MTV website and app, episodes become accessible for on-demand streaming.
As of this writing, we are unsure of when Season 40 will be accessible for streaming on Paramount Plus, where it will join the previous two seasons. We also believe that season 40 will be accessible in the UK on Paramount Plus, albeit we are unsure of the exact release date at this time.
When will 'The Challenge' Season 40 air?
On Wednesday, August 14, 'The Challenge' Season 40 will debut on MTV, featuring the biggest cast yet. 'The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras: Countdown Begins', an MTV cast introduction special, will give fans a sneak glimpse at the upcoming season debut on Wednesday, August 7 at 8 pm ET/PT.
In addition, new episodes of MTV's Official Challenge Podcast will be released every Thursday.
What is 'The Challenge' Season 40 all about?
'Battle of the Eras' refers to the fact that this season of 'The Challenge' would pit seasoned pros from several "eras" of the program against one another to determine who is the greatest of all time. In 'The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras', forty legendary competitors from the 26-year history of the series will compete, each representing their own "Challenge Era" in an epic battle for the ages where legends will clash in an attempt to become the only Challenge 40 Champions in history and claim their portion of the $1 million prize.
The route to success in the historic milestone of Season 40, 'The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras', is not simple. They must first compete in the Era Invitational and weed out the weakest members of their own Challenge Era in order for the best to be awarded a coveted seat on their squad.
These seasoned veterans are always kept on their toes in a game they thought they had mastered because of the constant, fresh difficulties and surprises.
Who will star in 'The Challenge' Season 40?
TJ Lavin, the host of 'The Challenge', will, as predicted, return to emcee the upcoming season. With 40 show veterans, including many repeat champions, returning to compete, the cast lineup for Season 40 is the strongest in the show's history.

What is the buzz around 'The Challenge' Season 40?
TJ visited CBS Mornings to discuss 'The Challenge' Season 40 on MTV with the show's anchors. They debuted an exclusive 'Battle of the Eras' footage starring TJ and all 40 cast members gathered in their Eras teams at the beginning of the show, weeks ahead of the season premiere.
"For Season 40, the total prize pot is one million dollars!" TJ divulges this to the rivals of Eras, while they applaud the amount. When TJ revealed the first significant surprise of the season, those initially enthusiastic faces quickly became a mixture of worried and anxious glances.
"To even have a shot at that $1 million, you gotta make it through the Era Invitational," he declared, counting, "So, we’re gonna whittle out the weak links of each era."
