The America's Got Talent franchise is going strong, as a brand new spinoff of the competition franchise is here, America's Got Talent: Fantasy League.

Following in the footsteps of other AGT spinoffs like America's Got Talent: Extreme, America's Got Talent: All-Stars and America's Got Talent: The Champions, America's Got Talent: Fantasy League is giving AGT fans a chance to see some of their favorite acts return in an all-new format for the competition.

Here is everything that we know about America's Got Talent: Fantasy League.

When is the next America's Got Talent: Fantasy League episode?

America's Got Talent: Fantasy League airs its next episode on Monday, January 15, on NBC at 8 pm ET/PT.

The performers set to appear on the latest episode, per Gold Derby, are Junior New System, Chapel Hart, Fritzy Rosmerian, Sofie Dossi, Enkh-Erdene, Pack Drumline, Yu Hojin, Genevieve Cote, Loren Allred and Ichikawa Koikuchi. Find out what teams they are on below.

America's Got Talent: Fantasy League format

This is an all-new format for America's Got Talent, one that is designed to resemble the popularity of fantasy sports.

On America's Got Talent: Fantasy League, the judges will choose their own roster of 10 acts from 40 acts made up of past winners, finalists, viral sensations and fan favorites from different AGT franchises around the world. The specific acts will be chosen from a field of 60 by an initial vote that opens after the AGT season 18 finale and is available on the AGT app.

The goal will be for each judge to have as many of their acts move onto the finals and, hopefully, win the whole thing (kind of similar to NBC's other popular reality competition show, The Voice). Acts will be moved into the finals through America's votes, but also Golden Buzzers.

However, there's a tweak with the Golden Buzzer. A judge can use their Golden Buzzer to move their own act through or to steal an act from another judge's team.

America's Got Talent: Fantasy League judges and host
