7 vs. Wild Season 3 started yesterday on YouTube, along with that Amazon has published the previous view counts of the survival show on their platform.
How well is 7 vs. Wild Season 3 performing on Amazon? The survival series by Fritz Meinecke (34) has been airing this year with a one-month head start on the Amazon service Freevee.
Freevee is a free “video-on-demand” service from Amazon where all users can watch series for free. Two episodes of the hit series are released each week on Freevee.
How well 7 vs. Wild Season 3 is doing on Freevee was disclosed by an Amazon spokesperson to Spiegel. By Tuesday afternoon, the nine episodes of 7 vs. Wild on Amazon had accumulated over 27 million views.
As expected, the first episode is the most-viewed. It gathered over 2 million views within 48 hours. Since the start of the adventure series, it has consistently been in first place, as Amazon revealed.
The exact view counts for each episode were not disclosed, but Amazon has yet to reach the view counts of Season 2 on YouTube.
One of the participants of Season 3 is the Twitch streamer Jens “Knossi” Knossalla. You can see more about him in our video.
Disappointing YouTube launch of 7 vs. Wild Season 3 – far fewer views than Season 2
How did the YouTube launch of Season 3 go? Yesterday, the first episode of the largest YouTube survival show in Europe was released. The episode started this year without a live chat, which was disappointing for some fans. However, the launch went smoothly.
On the official 7 vs. Wild channel on Instagram, exclusive content from the YouTube version of the show was teased a few hours before the release on YouTube.
Some fans may have had too high hopes here; in addition to an extra advertisement in the middle of the episode, there were only the participants’ bottle contents nicely presented. The secret of the teams’ bottle contents was revealed a few days ago.
How many views does 7 vs. Wild Season 3 have on YouTube? 16 hours after release, 7 vs. Wild Season 3 Episode 1 has about 800,000 views on YouTube. Already, it can be seen that the view counts of Season 2 will not be topped; this season had 4.5 million views within two days.
In the past, there has been ongoing criticism regarding the collaboration with Amazon for 7 vs. Wild Season 3. Even if Amazon enabled the season, founding father Fritz Meinecke recently criticized the production company.
