Royals.TV Frequently Asked Questions

Beginning with the 2026 season, Royals.TV will be available on cable and satellite television as well as the MLB app.

In-Market Streaming FAQ

Will I be able to stream Royals games?
Yes! Fans can stream Royals.TV on a variety of devices through the MLB app.

How will it work and how much will it cost?
Royals.TV in-market streaming packages can be purchased for the discounted rate of $99.99 per year or for $19.99 per month. Subscriptions for the 2026 season will be available starting in February.

Are there any blackouts?
With the purchase of a Royals.TV package on MLB.TV, subscribers located inside the Royals home market can stream ALL locally distributed Royals broadcasts. (Note: Royals.TV subscribers who travel outside the Royals home territory are still subject to other teams’ blackout restrictions. For example, if a Royals.TV subscriber is located in New York, a Royals vs. Mets game would be blacked out. The game would NOT, however, be blacked out if that subscriber was located in Royals home territory.)

Will I be able to watch Royals games if I have a standard MLB.TV package, but not the Royals.TV package?
A standard MLB.TV package is designated as an out-of-market package for fans who live outside their favorite team’s home territory. If you are a Royals fan living in Royals territory, you will not be able to watch Royals games with a standard MLB.TV package – you MUST have a Royals.TV subscription.
