Royals 2026 Regular Season Games Broadcast and Streaming Options Announced

The Kansas City Royals are gearing up for an exciting new season, starting with the season opener in Atlanta against the Braves and the home opener against the Minnesota Twins. If you’re wondering how to catch all the action, the club has got you covered with their latest broadcast and streaming options announcement.

Earlier this year, the Royals partnered with MLB to bring fans a new way to watch games after their previous broadcast partner, FanDuel/Bally’s, stepped down. Now, fans can head to the team’s website to find out which channel will be airing games in their television market, depending on their video distributor. Whether you have DIRECTV, Comcast/Xfinity, Cox, Charter/Spectrum, Fubo, or more, there’s a way for you to tune in.

For fans within the six-state region, you have the option to purchase a Royals.tv in-market streaming package for just $99.99 per year, with no blackout restrictions. If you’re outside this region, you can still catch all the action by subscribing to MLB.tv for $149.99 per year. Just keep in mind that both packages are subject to national exclusives.

In addition to these exciting updates, the Royals also announced the breakdown of national and local broadcasts for the upcoming season, as well as introducing two new members of the broadcast team. Former Royal Eric Hosmer and Kansas City native Bridget Howard will be joining the crew as host and sideline reporter, adding their unique perspectives to the game coverage.

So, grab your snacks, settle into your favorite spot, and get ready to cheer on the Royals this season. Whether you’re watching on DIRECTV, Comcast/Xfinity, Cox, Charter/Spectrum, or streaming online, there’s a way for every fan to stay connected to the action. Let’s play ball!
