The new season of the hit summer competition series will begin filming in Las Vegas this fall. Per NBC, Season 18 will introduce a new round featuring what they describe as “a supersized three-lane racecourse, where ninjas will face off head-to-head-to-head in thrilling side-by-side races.” Casting for the new season is currently underway.

NBC is keeping a long-running reality competition show on the schedule for another season, but it's adding a twist to keep viewers hooked.

NBC continues to keep its long-running unscripted series around. The network has renewed American Ninja Warrior for Season 18. Hosts Matt Iseman, Akbar Gbajabiamila and Zuri Hall return to lead the series,
