The MrBeast Experience at Resorts World Las Vegas promised fans a $1,000 immersive adventure packed with games, exclusive merch, and a shot at $10,000. But what guests actually received sparked backlash across social media. Many were instructed to stay in their rooms for hours, some over a full day, only to receive underwhelming mystery bags containing Feastables chocolates and MrBeast merchandise in children’s sizes. Frustrated attendees eventually met with Resorts World executives, and videos detailing their disappointment have gone viral on TikTok. MrBeast himself responded to the backlash, acknowledging the failed experience and offering affected fans a personal invite to tour his studio.
For Resorts World, the controversy adds to an already rocky year. The resort recently faced a $10.5 million fine over alleged money laundering violations, suffered guest service issues due to a failed check-in system upgrade, and reported a steep 23% revenue drop last quarter. While guests have since been promised full refunds, the debacle raises questions about whether this was simply a poorly executed collaboration—or a symptom of deeper issues at the resort.
