Amazon today is adding Peacock to its Fire TV and tablet devices, nearly a year after the streaming app launched, the companies announced yesterday.

The timing couldn’t be better for Fire TV owners. Peacock, which is owned by Comcast/NBCUniversal, also announced yesterday that it will live stream many events during next month’s Summer Olympics games, including every Team USA basketball game, women’s and men’s gymnastics, and the men’s and women’s 100-meter finals.

The addition of Fire TV should help Peacock generate more viewers and subscriptions in the coming weeks. The service, which has been available on other devices including Roku and Apple TV 4K, offers a variety of programming, including movies, TV shows and sports.
