Alone has been one of the most captivating survival series on global telecast, featuring some of the best survivalists in the world experiencing their own capabilities to endure human beings throughout the struggles of being alone in an extremely harsh environment. All fans of the series cannot wait for Season 13 to air in 2023, which is set to be an even more challenging and dangerous season than previous seasons. Season twelve included a challenging edition set in Africa, where participants were forced to deal not only with the harsh desert environment and dangerous wildlife but also with the mental challenges of isolation. Each season typically rewards the last remaining participant with a grand prize of $500,000 for winning.
Alone Season 13 has been officially renewed by the History Channel, but no exact premiere date has been announced yet.
Based on the show’s long-standing pattern, Season 13 is expected to air in mid-to-late 2026most likely around May or June 2026which aligns with the franchise’s usual summer release window.
For reference, Season 12 premiered in June 2025 and wrapped in August 2025. The production for Season 13 appears to be underway or preparing to ramp up, though History typically keeps filming locations and schedules secret until close to launch.
Until an official trailer drops, 2026 remains the most realistic window.
Alone Season 13 Expected Cast
No contestants have been officially revealed yet.
Casting for Season 13 is openand the show is expected to feature 10 brand-new individual survivalists. While there are no returning contestants or team formats announced. Participants are being verified with survival skills (hunting, trapping, shelter-building, foraging, bushcraft).
As usual, the cast lineup will likely be announced only a few weeks before the premiere.
Alone Season 13 Potential Plot
The general structure is still the same and also remains very simple.
For Season 13, yet again, we will drop a total of 10 survival experts into a wild, remote, and hostile environment, where they must survive on their own, record themselves on film without a film crew, endure extreme hunger, face weather and wildlife threats, and cope with psychological isolation. Survive longer than everyone else, and you win $500,000.
The exact location has not yet been disclosed. However, speculation indicates it will likely return to within the North American wilderness, either in the Alaska region or something comparable to what we saw in the earlier seasons. Another possible location could be a new, extreme biome, and possibly the opposite of the desert-like environment of Season 12.
The show will have the following elements: Long-term starvation strategies, there will be psychological issues from isolation, use of advanced survival techniques, there will be instances of medical evacuations and voluntary tap-outs, as well as other surprises, which the producers have historically kept secret, until it gets to the point of launching their marketing efforts.
