Set to air over 12 episodes, the brand new competition series sees the contestants sent to a grand countryside manner.
Left behind and for them to inherit is a vast fortune by the deceased who previously lived at the mansion.
Leaving video messages for the players from beyond the grave, they must compete in a series of challenges to unlock money from the will.
The same team behind smash-hit The Traitors and Squid Game: The Challenge will produce the new show.
Just like The Traitors, there’s lies and deceit throughout the game and the players will have to convince each other that only they should be trusted with the money pot.
Speaking about the new series, Steve Handley, C4‘s Head of Reality & Entertainment, said: “The Inheritance isn’t just a battle of strategy, alliances, and inevitable betrayals – it’s a cocktail of drama, jeopardy, and outright mischief that Reality fans love.
“I can’t wait to see how our players handle the challenges, the twists, and a few sneaky surprises.”
Tim Harcourt, Studio Lambert’s Chief Creative Officer added: “We often work together in life and yet some team-members seem to get so much more than others.
“This incredible game – part Knives Out, part Succession – can finally show us why this happens… and what better way to explore the notions of fairness and entitlement than through the delicious prism of a fight over a will’.”
Channel 4 have yet to reveal when The Inheritance will air.
