Format and development The eleventh season of ValóVilág powered by Big Brother was first announced as part of RTL Hungary's 2022 programming plans in November 2021. And was officially announced by RTL on 22 June 2022, when applications for the eleventh season opened. RTL described the programme as one of Hungary's most successful reality shows and announced that the new season would return later in the year. The winner was announced to receive a prize of 36 million Hungarian forints.
On 2 November 2022, RTL announced that the contestants would enter the villa on 20 November 2022. The premiere was scheduled as a Beköltöző Show at 9pm on RTL Kettő, followed by the regular daily episodes and the companion show BeleValóVilág.
The season retained the established format of Való Világ, in which contestants, known as Villa residents, lived together in a villa under continuous observation and competed through Selections, Challenges, public votes and eviction Duels. The outcome of the game was determined in part by viewers' votes, while contestants also participated in challenges that could affect events inside the villa.
The season also introduced a 24-hour live stream of the villa through RTL+, allowing viewers to follow the contestants' activities around the clock in addition to the edited television broadcasts. RTL announced the service shortly before the season premiered.

Notes : Márió and Dani entered the villa as replacement contestants for Lamin, who was evicted in the public vote, just minutes before the first selection. They were therefore immune and could not vote in the selection. : Melina and Kriszti both received three votes in the first selection. As villa master, Bibi ultimately gave the green scarf tied around Melina (selected). : Melina gave up the purple scarf symbolizing immunity before the second challenge. : Piros violated one of the strict rules of Való Világ by naming her intended challenger, Bibi, before the challenge. As a result, she was not allowed to challenge Bibi and had to face another contestant in the duel. : Viewers could vote on the reward for Melina and Kriszti, the two winners of Technical School Week. Duel immunity won the vote, granting them immunity for the challenge. : Before the challenge, Sajti named every contestants as a potential challenger, which resulted in a penalty. Viewers could vote to determine which contestants he could choose from, and they selected Barna, Dani, and Márió. Sajti could choose only from among these three contestants. : In the sixth selection, Márió and Dani both received three votes. As villa master, Melina ultimately had the green scarf tied around Márió (selected). : In the eighth duel, three players participate, from which only one could advance. Márió, the selected contestant and Melina's challenger, could decide who would become the third duelist. : Beginning with the ninth duel, the purple scarf symbolizing immunity was discontinued. : In the final challenge, Rico selected Reni as his challenger. However, Reni used the red scarf (save and replace) and sent Lissza to compete in her place.
Red scarf
The season introduced the piros kendő (red scarf), a one-time game advantage. During the first week, viewers voted to determine which contestant was considered the most entertaining and would receive the scarf. If its holder became the selected or challenged contestant, the red scarf allowed them to send another contestant to the duel in their place. The holder had 24 hours to decide whether to use the advantage and, if so, which contestant to select.
Piros remained the final holder of the red scarf following the subsequent viewer votes. During the fourth duel, Piros was defeated by Reni, and the red scarf consequently passed to Reni. The advantage played a role in the final duel of the season. After Rico selected Reni as his challenger, Reni used the red scarf to transfer the blue scarf to Lissza, making Lissza Rico's challenger instead.

Reception
The season was monitored by the National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH), which published a series of reports examining the programme's content and its online presence. NMHH's monitoring reports recorded the occurrence of potentially harmful content in the edited episodes, including smoking, alcohol consumption, sexuality and profanity.
For the first four weeks of the season, the authority monitored episodes broadcast between 20 November and 18 December 2022. The authority subsequently published a nine-week report covering the period from 20 November 2022 to 22 January 2023. The report also tracked the contestants' presence and mentions across different online platforms. Controversies The season received criticism for several incidents involving the behaviour of contestants and the depiction of conflicts and intimate situations.
In January 2023, Telex.hu reported on criticism surrounding the season, including an incident involving contestant Piros and disputes involving other contestants. The newspaper reported that the programme had increasingly attracted attention for its use of profanity, sexual content and confrontational situations.
In February 2023, the Hungarian Media Council (NMHH) stated that several episodes of the season had violated provisions concerning human dignity and the protection of minors. It also criticised the 24-hour live stream available through RTL+, stating that the continuous presentation of contestants could place them in humiliating or degrading situations. The findings were reported by several Hungarian news organisations, including 24.hu and HVG. The Media Council subsequently reported additional findings concerning broadcasts from 14 and 16 February, citing provisions concerning human dignity, the treatment of vulnerable persons and the protection of minors. The regulator also referred to the 24-hour online broadcast on RTL+.
