Zynga announced a cross-title collaboration with CBS to celebrate the landmark 50^th season of the Emmy-winning reality competition Survivor, bringing the show’s groundbreaking gameplay to five titles in the Zynga portfolio. For the first time in the series’ 25-year history, the game is “In the Hands of the Fans,” with viewer-driven decisions shaping the game, and these integrations have been designed for players to test their own skills with solo quests, team strategy, and puzzle challenges that bring the iconic island competition home as they await each tribal council vote. SURVIVOR 50 kicks off with a three-hour premiere episode Wednesday, Feb. 25 (8:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.

Ahead of the highly anticipated premiere, Zynga players will be able to dive into custom in-game integrations in iconic franchises, Words With Friends, Zynga Poker, and Two Dots. As the season progresses, so do the special events, with FarmVille 3 and Dragon City grabbing their torches and joining in on the season-long collaboration. Each game will feature its own twist on SURVIVOR’s strategy and puzzle play, with additional games rolling out new content throughout the season. From daily challenges to competitive moments inspired by the show’s gameplay, fans can easily jump in and experience the SURVIVOR strategy they know and love right inside their favorite games.
