What's available

Peacock is available in New Zealand with a decent but limited library compared to its US counterpart. You can access a solid range of content, including:

  • NBCUniversal originals like Poker Face, The Resort, and Bel-Air
  • Classic TV series including The Office (US), Parks and Recreation, and Cheers
  • Universal Pictures films such as Jurassic World Dominion, Nope, and Halloween Ends
  • Reality content including select seasons of The Real Housewives franchise
  • WWE Network content for wrestling fans

What you're missing

The New Zealand library is noticeably thinner than the US version. Several high-profile titles are geo-restricted and unavailable without changing your region:

  • Sunday Night Football and live NFL games exclusive to Peacock
  • Premier League live matches (a major drawcard in the US)
  • Yellowstone and its spinoffs, which stream on Peacock in the US
  • The Traitors US — only earlier seasons are accessible
  • Day-one access to new Universal theatrical releases via Peacock's early streaming window
  • Full back catalogues of shows like Law & Order: SVU and Bravo originals

How to access other regions

To unlock the full US Peacock library from New Zealand, you need a VPN. Connect to a US server, then open Peacock — it will detect a US IP address and serve you the complete library. Our top recommendation is NordVPN, which reliably unblocks Peacock and offers fast speeds suitable for HD streaming. Simply install NordVPN, choose any US server location, and sign in to your Peacock account as normal.

Pricing

Peacock offers a free tier with limited content and ads. Premium plans in New Zealand are priced in NZD, typically around NZ$7–$10 per month for the ad-supported tier and higher for the ad-free Premium Plus plan, though pricing can vary based on promotions. Check Peacock's site directly for the latest figures.

Our recommendation

If you enjoy Peacock's originals and Universal films, the New Zealand library gives you a reasonable starting point — but you're leaving a lot on the table. Sports fans and anyone wanting the full US experience should pair Peacock with NordVPN. It's an easy setup that immediately opens up live NFL, Premier League, and a much deeper content catalogue worth paying for.
