"Peacock Games 5" is testing on channel 619-4, several "Peacock Games" channels are also testing on the stream server

I know over the summer it was reported that NBCUniversal was thinking of re-launching a cable sports network that allowed access to the Peacock NBA games and additional Olympics events. Is that what this is? Or is this something else?
