The newest entry into The Traitors-verse has arrived. We've rounded up everything you need to know about where to watch The Traitors: New Blood, including streaming options, an episode release schedule, and the trailer.

Alan Cumming returns as host for The Traitors: New Blood, the franchise's latest release, which is steering away from its usual star-studded celeb cast and instead pits 22 civilians against each other in the Scottish Highlands for a shot at $250,000.

The viewing options are a little bit different from the first four seasons of The Traitors. If you don't want to read any further, US fans can live stream every episode on NBC with a Peacock Premium Plus subscription. Below, you can find additional details about the series, along with some streaming options with free trials.

Where to watch The Traitors: New Blood in the US

As we mentioned above, the viewing options for The Traitors: New Blood are a little bit different from the previous four seasons of The Traitors. Instead of premiering directly on Peacock, the series will air on NBC. New episodes will drop on Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET, and they'll land on Peacock on demand the following day.

If you're hoping to watch live and you don't have cable, you can still catch the show on Peacock, although you'll need the Peacock Premium Plus tier. Peacock Premium Plus costs $20 a month and unlocks ad-free on-demand content and a direct live stream of NBC. If you don't mind waiting a day to watch, you can catch new episodes Fridays through Peacock Premium, which costs $13 a month.

Peacock Premium Plus (Monthly Plan)

Peacock Premium Plus subscription is $20 a month. The extra cost gets rid of most ads, allows you to download select titles, and also comes with your local NBC channel.

If you're looking for a platform with a free trial or additional channels beyond just NBC, you can try a live TV streaming service. These month-to-month apps offer most of the channels found in cable packages, without any of the long-term commitment.

YouTube TV carries NBC in both its Main and Sports plan. The Main plan (100+ channels) normally costs $83 a month, but new customers can get $15 a month off their first five months for a limited time. The Sports plan (30+ channels) typically costs $65 a month, but new customers can get $20 a month off their first six months. Both plans unlock ESPN Unlimited live streams and come with a free trial for first-time users.

YouTube TV's main plan carries over 100 channels, ranging from local networks to cable favorites.

Fubo carries NBC in all of its English-language plans. Pro subscriptions (200+ channels) cost $89 a month, but new users can get $25 off their first month after a free trial. These plans also unlock access to ESPN Unlimited and come with a free trial for first-time customers.

Fubo is the streaming service for sports fans. Its huge library of channels includes regional and international sports leagues, setting it apart from the competition. You can also tack on additional programming to your plan, but it'll cost you extra.

How to watch The Traitors: New Blood from anywhere

Traitors fans traveling abroad can still keep up with New Blood with the help of a VPN. VPNs, or virtual private networks, are cybersecurity tools that enable people to alter the virtual location on their electronic devices. This way, their favorite websites and apps work from anywhere — just like they would back home. The services we've recommended require US forms of payment, so this option will work best for Americans who are simply traveling away from home right now.

If you're not sure where to start when it comes to VPNs, NordVPN consistently ranks among the best VPNs on the market. Plus, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so it's no sweat if you find that it's not what you're looking for.

A wide selection of international servers, high-end security, fast connections, and audited privacy protection have made the brand a household name in the world of VPNs for a reason.

The Traitors: New Blood episode release schedule

New episodes of The Traitors: New Blood drop on Thursday nights, beginning September 17. For the first couple of weeks, two new episodes will drop back-to-back each week. After that, one new episode will air each week until the finale on November 19.
