Release Date

Plot

Each episode, the Battlbox (an outdoor and sporting goods company) crew will test outdoor and survival gear to determine if the product is useful, durable, and good-to-go. The cool factor, however, lies in the team employing extreme methods to complete the process. Expect lots of explosions and destruction.

Trailer



 

The clips waste no time in establishing that it's going to be one gripping and on-the-edge experience. The docuseries will put the testers through life-threatening situations for them to be able to test the survival gear better, which makes it all the more thrilling. 

Meanwhile, fans are excited and geared up for the show.

"Good to see Netflix doing stuff you'd normally see in History or Discovery. Except this looks a tad more interesting," a user commented, while another shared: "Jackass meets dukes of hazard meets cool product placement? haha cant wait." "So like Myth Busters but like hardcore," a user commented. "Seems dumb and unnecessary; I’m in," another wrote.

Interestingly, there are also some negative comments about the all-white cast. Viewers seem to be miffed that there isn't any black individual to be seen in the trailer instead. Also, some have felt that it's a mish-mash of 'Mythbusters,' and the many Bear Grylls shows. 

Showrunners

The streaming site is yet to announce show-related information.
