The season kicks off on Monday, 14 January 2025 on the flagship channel TF1. As in previous years, the show will run two episodes per week – a daytime recap and a prime‑time reveal – each lasting 45 minutes. The core format remains unchanged: contestants are locked inside the Crystal House, each carrying a personal secret that must be protected while they try to uncover the secrets of their rivals.

What makes Episode 1 special is the introduction of a new “mission‑based” prize system.

Their task will set the tone for the entire season, forcing them to balance cooperation with the classic game of deception.
