Two tribes: men vs women both tribes living on the same beach.  
NO returning players.

"We wondered what would happen if we forced them to live together with no rules," says host Jeff Probst. "You can build one camp, two camps, not have any camps. Men can sleep over with the women, women can sleep over with the men, or you can never talk at all. You can do whatever you want. But when it comes to the challenges, it is men versus women. And that gave us tons of new stuff to play with."  (Per EW.com article)

Merged Buff Color: Black?

birdseyetoo at SS regarding the merge buff:

• Hidden Immunity Idols: - New Twist
  (Per EW.com article) 
  The way hidden immunity idols are played will also be different in season 24. This time, there will be two idols hidden at the camp — one for each tribe — but finding your tribe’s idol does not guarantee your safety. Instead, as Probst explains, “When you find the idol, you can’t use it for yourself. You have to give it to someone from the other tribe.” The trick will be picking the right person to give it to, and perhaps getting concessions in return — not to mention lobbying for the other team’s idol once someone finds it.

• The Redemption Island Twist is NOT Back  

• "Do It Yourself Challenges" - New Challenge Twist
  Per Jeff Probst (EW.com article) 

"Do It Yourself Challenges," a few of which will be sprinkled throughout the season. (A similar experiment took place on Survivor: Samoa when confused contestants arrived at a challenge only to find some crates and no Probst.) This time, these Probst-less competitions will take place back at camp. Tribes will receive materials and instructions informing them of the rules so that they can then conduct their own challenge. “So they figure out how they’re going to run it, who’s going to participate, and then they run it," Probst explains. "There's no judge there. There's no person to moderate it. You guys figure it out. We were hoping somebody might step up and decide to become the annoying host and say things like, 'Pick up the pace! You dropped a coconut!' And sure enough, that's what happens." But the impact felt from these Do It Yourself Challenges will not stop there. "You have the question of, what do you do with all the materials from the challenge?" says Probst. "In one case, we do a challenge with a gigantic rope and when you're done, you have this massive rope and now you can utilize it in your camp somehow."
