Sling TV Available Today On Xbox One, All Members Get Free Month
In January, Microsoft and Dish announced a partnership to bring Sling TV to Xbox One. Starting today, cord cutters can start using the service via the console.
Xbox Live members are eligible for a free month of the live television service. Those that opt to cut the cord can do so for as little as $20 per month, which includes CNN, ESPN, TNT, Disney Channel, CNN, and more.
Add-on packages offer additional sports, movie, kids, or news channels for $5 per month each. The Sling TV app also includes a “three day replay” feature that allows you to watch aired programs for 72 hours after they’ve been shown live.
For convenience, you can pin the app or specific video on-demand content to your home screen. This allows you to pick up right where you left off.
The app and the free trial are available now via your Xbox One console.
Correction: This story originally indicated that only Xbox Live Gold members are eligible for the free month. All members can take advantage of this offer. We have corrected the headline and body of the story and apologize for the error.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
