New housemate selection
During the first live eviction show, it was announced that a new housemate would enter the house and the choice is made by the public. During the week, two new potential contestants have been voted on the official application and one of them entered the house by the decision of the public vote on Day 15.

Repechage
During the eviction show on Day 64, it was announced a vote between ex-housemates to return to the House, and unlike last season the returning housemates would be competing for the grand prize, however, if one of them ends up winning they would get a reduced price and the rest will be divided between the other finalists. At the end of the eviction show of the same night, the bottom 3 was eliminated, being the vote between the top 4 opened during the week and the 2 ex-housemates with the most votes would return to the game on Day 78.

On November 17, the ex-housemates did tests for COVID-19. As Liliana's test came out as positive, she was automatically eliminated from any chance of re-entering the house.

On November 25, it was revealed that Sandra had quit the repechage due to family reasons. Therefore, the public vote was canceled, and Carina and Jéssica A. would re-enter the game.

On November 26, Jéssica A. was disqualified from returning to the game as she broke the rules and let fellow ex-housemate Rui visit her while she was in isolation. Therefore, Carina was the only ex-housemate returning to the house.
