What happens

Sasuke Vietnam (Vietnamese: Không giới hạn - Sasuke Việt Nam, lit. 'Sasuke Vietnam: Unlimited') is a Vietnamese game show and sports entertainment competition, based on the Japanese television series Sasuke which is aired on VTV3. Dubbed as the "most expensive Vietnamese television show" by VTV and "Asia’s first large-scale adaptation" of Sasuke by TBS, the show focuses on around 120 to 260 contestants during each season tackling a difficult assault course featuring a variety of obstacles. Contestants advance in the competition by achieving a fast enough time or progressing far enough along the course. The competition culminates with a final, in which the contestant who goes furthest fastest is declared "Last Man Standing". If a competitor completes the final stage, Mt Midoriyama, in under 30 seconds (35 seconds in the fourth season), they will be declared winner of the competition. The first season of Sasuke Vietnam was premiered on June 18, 2015, and broadcast on VTV3. As of now, the show has produced and aired five seasons, with three Total Victories by three different competitors, all in the second season. The sixth season firstly set to be premiered in 2020, later postponed due to COVID-19 pandemic, but was subsequently cancelled when the license elapsed in 2022. It was clear to some the show was on its last legs, but in 2025, TBS announced that they renewed the licensed contact of the show for VTV, and thus Sasuke Vietnam will be rebooted after seven years.
