Notes

  • On the 22nd of May 2024, it was announced on Facebook and Instagram that the third season of Le Maître du Jeu was in production, and would feature the contestants Alex Perron, Arnaud Soly, Bianca Gervais, Richardson Zéphir, and Virginie Fortin.
  • In mid-July 2024, applications opened up via Public Cible for tickets to attend the studio filming sessions at Studio Cinépool in LaSalle, Québec between the 4th and 13th of August 2024. The recording schedule suggested that 14 episodes were to be filmed in total during this period. It's not known if these are all part of the season, or whether one or two of them are separate specials to be aired later (e.g. a Christmas special, as was aired in 2023).

Notes on discrepancies

  • At the end of episode 6, Virginie's final score was 1 point higher than it should have been, due to an administrative error. This error was carried forward onto the official season scoreboard shown in episode 7, along with a mysterious 2 additional points assigned to Alex, for some reason.
  • As of the season scoreboard shown at the end of episode 10, Alex was shown to have 1 more point than he should have, Arnaud was shown to have 1 less than he should, but Virginie's score had somehow resolved to what it should be.
  • The discrepancies shown on the episode 10 scoreboard update carried over onto the final scoreboard for the season, but did not affect anyone's overall placements.
