escape the unit

Trust No One. Move Fast. Stay Hidden.

You are isolated behind enemy lines. Your mission? Survive, evade capture, resist interrogation, and escape to the designated extraction point.

Survival Starts Here

Inspired by The Hunger Games, Bear Grylls’ Celebrity Bear Hunt, and real-world SERE (Survive, Evade, Resist, Escape) training, this is no ordinary challenge. It’s a high-pressure survival simulation designed to push you and your team to the edge – physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Over the course of the mission, you’ll be hunted, interrogated, and forced to make critical decisions in real time. Every move counts. Every choice has consequences. Trust, composure, and adaptability aren’t just helpful – they’re your only shot at making it through.

Do you have what it takes to outwit the DS… or will you crack under pressure?

THE MISSION

You and your unit must evade an elite team of Drill Sergeants (DS) while navigating hostile terrain filled with booby traps, ambush points, and psychological warfare tactics.

1

Evasion & Movement

Stay off the grid. Use terrain, concealment, and deception to avoid detection.

2

Counter-Capture Tactics

Booby-traps, tripwires, and IEDs alert the DS to your position—step carefully.

3

Resistance Phase

Captured? Prepare for tactical questioning and high-pressure decisions. Will you betray a teammate to survive?

4

Immunity & Survival Tools

Secure critical survival items, radios, and food caches—but beware: not all stations have supplies.

5

Proof of Progress

Teams must document their journey, complete photo reconnaissance, and outmaneuver the hunters.

6

Grand Prize

If you reach the extraction point… but only one survivor takes it all—unless you negotiate a split.

Testimonial

CLARA LGFA

The Unit Training Program (UTP) is a rigorous, comprehensive training plan designed to prepare you physically and mentally for The Unit Challenge. Built on Tactical Athlete Training principles, the UTP mimics the demands faced in Special Operations environments. The high attrition rate highlights the programme’s difficulty, but with dedication and consistency, success is achievable.

What makes it different

This isn’t a simulation for show. It’s built from real-world special forces training methods – designed to challenge your team’s trust, communication, and resilience in high-stress, unpredictable situations. You won’t just bond over shared struggle – you’ll learn who leads, who follows, and who steps up when it counts.

No Script,
No Safety Net

This is not a theme park simulation. Every decision matters. There’s no reset button – only consequences.

Live DS Pursuit

You’re being tracked by real former Special Forces. Their mission: to find and break you.

Warfare Meets Survival Grit

You’ll face isolation, tactical interrogation, and ethical dilemmas under extreme pressure.
