X Factor is the German version of The X Factor, a show originating from the United Kingdom. It is a television music talent show contested by aspiring pop singers drawn from public auditions.

The show's inaugural German season started in August 2010.[1] RTL broadcast the first two kick-off shows. The other episodes have been shown on VOX. Both channels are part of Mediengruppe RTL Deutschland. The seasons 1-3 of X Factor were produced by Grundy Light Entertainment, another RTL Group company.[2] Season 4 is produced by UFA Show & Factual by Sky.[3]

The auditions for the first season were held in April 2010. The show started on 20 August 2010 and ended on 9 November 2010 with Edita Abdieski being crowned the winner. The second season began on 30 August 2011 and concluded in November and was won by David Pfeffer. The third season began on 25 August 2012 and was won by Mrs Greenbird on 25 November 2012.

The show was cancelled after the third season in 2012 before eventually being announced for a revival in 2018 on its new home channel, Sky Deutschland. It premiered on 27 August 2018 on Sky 1.

On 7 December 2018, Sky 1 cancelled the series after one season.
