Wer Wird Millionär? Launches Five-Night €3 Million Week on RTL

The special uses a €16,000 qualifier with a secret‑wager finale offering up to €3 million.

Overview

  • RTL airs the event nightly at 20:15 from Monday, January 5 through Friday, January 9, 2026, with the finale on Friday.
  • Contestants who fail to reach €16,000 during the first four broadcasts are eliminated from contention for the finale.
  • In the deciding show, Günther Jauch presents previously undisclosed betting options that can either secure prior earnings or risk them entirely.
  • Episodes stream on RTL+ for time‑shifted viewing, with Basic at €5.99 and Premium at €8.99 per month as of December 2025, and no additional linear repeat is planned.
  • Günther Jauch returns as host, and observers report slightly easier lower‑tier questions this week before difficulty intensifies at higher levels.
