ESPN Unlimited represents a watershed moment in sports streaming, marking the first time that every part of ESPN‘s programming is now directly available to you without traditional cable. Launched on Thursday, Aug. 21, you can now sign up to access all of ESPN’s live games, studio shows, original content, and more — in just one app.
With the start of the college football and NFL seasons upon us, and the WNBA playoffs right around the corner, you don’t have to worry about juggling multiple platforms, because there’s never been a better time to cut the cable cord as a sports fan. Here’s why ESPN Unlimited is your all-in-one portal to the best games of the season.
What Is ESPN Unlimited?
At its core, ESPN Unlimited delivers the full suite of ESPN’s networks, including ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN Deportes, SEC Network, ACC Network, ESPN on ABC, ESPN3, and more, all in one streaming plan. When you subscribe, you’ll gain access to over 47,000 live sporting events per year, like from the NFL, NBA, WNBA, MLB, NHL, UFC, WWE, U.S. Open Tennis, and more. Additionally, ESPN Unlimited will cover international soccer, women’s college soccer, volleyball, and field hockey, too.
ESPN Unlimited will also have live and on-demand access to all of ESPN’s leading studio shows — including SportsCenter, Get Up, First Take, NFL Live, The Pat McAfee Show, Pardon the Interruption, College GameDay, NBA Today, Inside the NBA, The Rich Eisen Show, and more — plus an on-demand library featuring 30 for 30 films, ESPN Originals, replays, and more.
ESPN Unlimited Pricing And Bundling
Base pricing for ESPN Unlimited is $29.99 per month (or $299.99 annually). But the good news is that for a limited time, ESPN, Disney, and Hulu are offering a three-service bundle deal: ESPN Unlimited, Disney+ (ad-supported), and Hulu (ad-supported) together will be just $29.99/month during your first 12 months. With this deal, you’re saving over 39% per month for a year, and effectively getting a full year of Disney+ and Hulu at no extra cost. After the discount ends, the price will increase to $35.99/month for the ad-supported plan or $44.99/month for a Premium plan.
Want ad-free streaming instead? The Premium bundle — with ad-free versions of Disney+ and Hulu — runs $38.99/month for the first year before adjusting to the standard rate.
The new launch isn’t just about expanding your game-streaming potential, it’s also upgrading your overall experience. The enhanced ESPN App is bringing with it new features, such as updated multiview options, integrated game stats, betting information, and fantasy sports, a vertical video carousel optimized for watching on your phone, along with a personalized SportsCenter For You.
So if you’re ready for all of ESPN now right at your fingertips, sign up for this ESPN Unlimited streaming bundle deal before it expires on Monday, Jan. 5.
