Overview
- Starting January 24, Paramount+ becomes the exclusive home for UFC in the U.S. and Latin America, with numbered events and Fight Nights included for subscribers at no extra event charge.
- Paramount+ pricing shifts on January 15 to $9 per month for Essential (ad-supported) and $14 for Premium (ad-free), a change still far cheaper than past $79.99 pay-per-views.
- Paramount+ published a 2026 slate that opens with UFC 324 in Las Vegas on January 24 and lists additional Fight Nights and pay-per-view formerly numbered cards through March.
- A viral image suggesting $2.99 charges per fight triggered confusion but was later shown to be a glitch or non-subscriber view, with users demonstrating full library access under a subscription.
- Fans exploring the new UFC interface report faster navigation and deeper hubs, with some early notes about ads on the lower tier, limited search tools, and TV app quirks, and select marquee bouts are set to simulcast on CBS.
