Love Island Games Season 3 is Coming to Peacock with Ariana Madix as Host
Peacock has officially renewed Love Island Games for a third season, announcing that Ariana Madix will return as host. The news was revealed during the NBCUniversal Upfront event, with the new season set to premiere in the Fall of 2027.
This renewal continues Peacock’s pattern of releasing the competition-dating series every other year. Love Island Games invites beloved Islanders from various global iterations of Love Island to participate in a fresh hunt for romance and relationships.
Participants hailing from the U.S., U.K., France, Australia, and other regions will compete in a unique format designed to crown champions at the villa. This season promises a blend of romance and reality, as contestants will navigate both team and couples’ challenges alongside dating, eliminations, recoupling, and unexpected twists that will dramatically influence the competition.
Love Island Games debuted in 2023 with Maya Jama from Love Island UK as the original host. Ariana Madix took over hosting responsibilities for Season 2 in 2025, joined by Maura Higgins, who hosted Aftersun. Iain Stirling, known for narrating both the British and U.S. versions, will also lend his voice to this series.
Filming takes place in Fiji, utilizing the same villa featured in Love Island USA. The second season crowned Isaiah Campbell and Lucinda Stafford as winners, while Justine Ndiba and Tyrique Hyde finished in second place.
Produced by ITV America in association with Motion Entertainment, a WPP Media Company, Love Island Games is distributed by ITV Studios.
