Microsoft has announced that the interactive game show, 1 vs 100, will not be returning for a third season on Xbox LIVE.

During the Beta season, more than 114,000 people played 1 vs 100 on Xbox LIVE simultaneously, setting an official Guinness world record for the most contestants in a game show.

“When we started on this journey, we knew we were creating an entirely new genre of entertainment that would be a continually evolving concept,” said Dave McCarthy, General Manager, Microsoft Game Studios. “We’re very proud of the 1 vs 100 team and their accomplishments, and are excited to apply what we’ve learned to future programming.”

Microsoft says that the 1 vs 100 team is now focusing their skills and applying the technology used to develop 1 vs 100 to new projects that will be unveiled in the future.
