Peacock announced today that Love Island USA has been renewed for a ninth season. The news comes a month after the dating series crowned its most recent winners, and just days before the Season 8 reunion episode.

The franchise as a whole is continuing to fare well stateside. In addition to Love Island USA being a top streaming title for Peacock, spinoffs 'Love Island Games' and 'Love Island Beyond the Villa' also perform well for the streamer and have been picked up for additional seasons.

Based on the British smash hit, Love Island USA brings a group of single 'Islanders' together in a picturesque villa as they look for love. During their summer of romance, the Islanders pair up when they have a connection and can be voted off when they don't. New singles periodically arrive to stir things up, and viewers can use an app to participate by voting on certain events. Eventually one lucky couple is crowned the winner and takes home a cash prize.
