There are going to be some Destination X, mainly between the cast as they navigate the new game. Traveling through Europe without phones, maps, or any clues about where they are, the players on Destination X must figure out where they are by assessing their surroundings and moving through tasks in the location. At the end of each leg, the players will have the opportunity to visit a map room, where they'll mark an X of where they think they are. The farthest X will be eliminated until one competitor is left standing.
