"Long story short, the world's in trouble, and has been for a while."
Take your first look at Final Fantasy VII Revelation, launching simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, Epic Games Store and Steam in Spring 2027.
A THIRTY FIVE million drop in viewers from last year is massive + a much larger drop than I expected, but I can't say I'm shocked. Hopefully this will ring alarm bells for the EBU and things will change for 2027, but I feel like the damage has been done now
📊 #Eurovision 2026 reached 131 million people across 35 TV markets, down 35 million or 21% from 2025.
This year's Grand Final achieved an average viewing share of 43%, down 5% from last year.
Winning broadcaster BNT achieved a viewing share of 46%, their highest ever.

Zayn also matched the amount that had been raised so far and donated £77,000 to the cause!

Forgot to share some snaps from the Zayn concert in Manchester on Sunday which was brilliant + it felt more special knowing his family were there and knowing this was his home gig of the tour #KonnakolTour
@back2the90s26 Ohh okay, I didn't realise that haha, I did wonder whether the 43 tracks from Drake released would have an impact but I thought ACR would've counted in that too 😂
I can't think of the last time only one Eurovision entry made the Top 200 in the UK, which is a shame as Eclipse is a great song. With this, and the fact the BBC ESC viewership was at it's lowest since 2010, I think the boycott has had some impact, at least in the UK 🇬🇧
"Eclipse" by Delta Goodrem was the second-best selling #Eurovision 2026 song last week in the United Kingdom. It moved 5,096 units in the country, narrowly missing the top 200 of their official singles chart. 🇦🇺
The EBU have been lucky that Bangaranga is shaping up to be a smash hit across the continent, and Dara deserves it, but the fact that no other country's song got over 1 million streams the day after the contest, when so many others in previous years have, speaks volumes
Watching the Bangaranga winner's reprise and DARA is a superstar! I love how they recreated the dance in the green room flawlessly + when she stands on the top of the stairs to a deafening cheer of fans, I get chills, it feels so surreal knowing 🇧🇬 has finally won Eurovision
I'm so so happy and relieved that Bulgaria won tonight, DARA was phenomenal, and a worthy winner + it's lovely to see a country win Eurovision for the first time 🇧🇬
🇧🇪 Belgian broadcaster VRT has called for "a direct vote on which countries participate [at #Eurovision] and a clear stand against war and violence."
If these conditions are not met, "the chances are slim that VRT will send an artist next year."
