The Playoffs started on 5 July. In the Playoffs, each coach pairs two of their artists together, with each artist singing an individual song following a theme. After all of their team's playoffs were done, the coaches chose one of their losing artists as a wildcard. The top 20 contestants who win their Playoff or are chosen as a Wildcard move on to the Showdowns. Due to COVID-19 and travel restrictions, Kelly and George mentored their artists remotely, with Marcia Hines and The Veronicas filling in as guest mentors respectively. Artists Caleb Jago-Ward from Team George and Ella Monnery from Team Kelly were unable to continue on the competition also due to travel restrictions, being stuck in New Zealand.[9] Coaches George and Kelly were allowed to bring back an eliminated Battle loser to fill in for Caleb and Ella, George choosing Elyse Sene-Lefao and Kelly chose Jimi the Kween.
