==Season Summary==
The major twist this season was that the castaways were initially divided into four tribes based on their gender. Like in the previous season, when one or more tribes lost an Immunity Challenge, the winning tribe(s) voted out one of the members of the losing tribe(s). In addition, the joker twist was brought back for this edition. The 'joker' this season was Douglas Svedberg. The dominant alliance this season was that of the West Team's Jerker Dalman, Jesus Pettersson, Klas Granström, and Robert Andersson. Klas, who was initially the third castaway voted out, was allowed to return after winning a challenge against Deniz Özen, following the ejection of Susanna Wahlberg. The alliance managed to remain intact until the final four, with Jerker winning over Klas in a 5-4 jury vote.
