Peacock’s multiview feature isn’t just for sports — it’s also good for tracking the action on election night, apparently. As votes roll in on November 5th, Peacock will show three different livestreams that you can jump between.
One window will have a stream of NBC News Now, which will show breaking news and real-time election results from anchors Lester Holt and Savannah Guthrie. The multiview setup will also include a “Kornacki Cam” with analysis from correspondent Steve Kornacki as well as a map with election results from across the country.
Just like the multiview option for the 2024 Paris Olympics, Peacock will let you move between each screen, toggle the audio on or off for specific streams, and select a livestream to watch in full screen. The election multiview feature will go live on Peacock on November 5th starting at 6PM ET. It will be available on smart TVs, web browsers, and tablets.
Peacock is also launching a hub where you can find election-related content on November 1st. The streamer is expanding multiview into other areas of its service as well, as it plans on bringing multiview to Premier League matches starting on December 4th, letting you watch four games at once.
