The latest Beast Games episode aired on January 23, 2025, on Prime Video. The seventh episode of the show's first season featured multiple eliminations. By the end of the Physical Game, the reality show revealed the Top 21 Players. They were then brought to the Train Elimination task.

Players picked Akira (Player 539) as the captain for the task. He then chose Players, including 626, 952, and 182, as his "least favorite" participants. Mr Beast asked Akira about his choice of players. During the segment, Beast Games player Mia criticized Akira for choosing participants of a particular race.

Player 952 shared:

"It's the microcosm of America. The black woman is always last."

Beast Games Episode 7 featured Akira as the captain during the Elimination Train Task. After being announced as the captain, Player 539 was supposed to choose three "least favorite" players. His choice was:

  • Player 952, aka Mia
  • Player 18,2 aka Monce (Mo)
  • Player 626, aka Rikeyah (Stitch)

Selected players were sent to the Red Track for the task. Akira was given two choices: either save his brand-new Lamborghini or save these three - his least favorite players in the game.

"Not a train, not a plane, not a Lamborghini, or Akira can stop the favor of God. Let me just tell you," confessed Mia.

After Akira selected the three, the host asked them their opinion. Beast Games player Mia shared that "Black woman" was always last. However, some of the fellow players didn't agree with that and mentioned that it was not their take on Akira.

"I don't think her comment is a reflection of how this game is being played right now," shared Player 817.

Most players expected Akira to save his car, but not the three players. Before Akira revealed his decision, Mr Beast asked the three players how they felt. Player 182 believed that Akira would make the "right" decision when the time came.

On the other hand, Beast Games player Akira, who had to make the decision, shared that it was hard for him to choose. He referred to the three players as: "great people who played their hearts out" on the game show.

Mia added that, whatever Akira would decide, he would have to face "the same thing" later. While pulling the level and eliminating the three players, Akira said:

"I told you all that I didn't think I could win this $5 million, but I'm here to help someone else win it. The only way to do that."

When Akira apologized to the eliminated players, Player 182 revealed her choice and didn't want to interact with him. Further, in the seventh episode, Akira was also eliminated.


Beast Games Season 1 Episode 7 is now streaming on Prime Video.
