- Here's a full breakdown of how much it costs.
In 2018, cable sports channel ESPN launched ESPN+, a new subscription-based streaming service.
It's a hybrid service that combines on-demand sports video content with its ever-expanding catalog of original shows and documentaries and news from ESPN Insider, the network's paid news content.
Here's a quick rundown of how much the service will cost you and how much you can save if you choose a bundle package.
Signing up for ESPN+
If you just want access to ESPN+, it'll cost you $5 per month or $50 per year. That's it. If you do the math, signing up for a whole year instead of going month-t0-month will save you $10 overall.
This gets you access to all the video content and ESPN Insider articles in the network's database, including live on-demand games that aren't available to you locally, exclusive UFC fights, and even the beloved "30 under 30" sports documentaries.
Bundling ESPN+ with Hulu and Disney+
If you're interested in Hulu or Disney+, it might be a good idea to take advantage of a bundle for $13/month.
The bundle will include the regular version of Hulu with ads, which costs $5.99/month, and the new Disney+, which costs $7/month. The $13 monthly bundle is a good value as it'd save you $4 each month.
Watching ads on Hulu isn't the worst thing to happen, especially since there are so many good shows to catch, and Disney+ is arguably one of the most valuable new streaming services. It will launch on November 12 with tons of existing and new Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars movies, plus new exclusive series like "The Mandalorian."
Is there a free trial?
Previously, there was a free trial to try out ESPN+, but unfortunately, it's no longer on the table. If it becomes available again, we'll update this post.
