The Vegas survivor scene just leveled up again. Circa has doubled down on its dominance, launching two world‑class contests for the 2025 NFL season.

• Buy‑in: $1,000 per entry
• Max Entries: Up to 10 per person
• Guarantee: $15 million to the last entry standing
• Format: Pick one NFL team each week, no repeats, with special bonus rounds on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
• Re‑buys: Allowed after opening‑week losses (Thursday/Friday only).

This is the one that has become the survivor championship of the world. Last season drew over 14,000 entries and paid roughly $1.78M to each of the eight co‑winners. For 2025, the guarantee is $15 million, making it the largest legal sports contest in U.S. history.

• Buy‑in: $100,000 per entry
• Max Entries: 2 per person
• Guarantee: $1.5 million
• Format: Identical survivor structure to Circa Survivor, pick one NFL team per week, no repeats, plus Thanksgiving and Christmas bonus rounds.
• Target Player: High‑stakes pros, whales, elite private syndicates.

This is survivor in a tuxedo, the same grind as the $1K contest but with an ultra‑elite field and six‑figure skin in the game. The smaller size means fewer outright mistakes and far less free equity than the big‑field $1K, but the prestige and the check will be enormous.

• VSiN Docuseries: Circa Survivor: The Quest returns August 5, 2025, for Season Two, covering the $14.2M drama from last season and featuring cameos from Dana White and Greg Maddux.
• Projected Field Sizes: Expect 15K+ entries in Circa Survivor and a much smaller, ultra‑select Grandissimo field.
• Community Talk: Reddit, betting forums, and survivor groups have been hyped since the schedule came out in May

Whether you are in the $1K or the $100K, or both, the game is brutal. The field is sharper, mistakes are costlier, and variance can swing millions.

2025 is not just another year. It is two heavyweight contests, each with its own personality and path to glory. One is the massive, chaotic arena where $15M is on the line. The other is the most exclusive survivor game ever run, with the same rules, the same twists, and a far higher barrier to entry.
