"textContent": "\n\n\n\nSky has overhauled its **Ultimate TV** bundle, adding Disney+, HBO Max, and Hayu for the first time. This brings the total number of streamers included with this package to **five standalone services**.\n\nIf you subscribed to **Netflix** , **HBO Max** , **Disney+** , **discovery+** , and **Hayu** separately, it would cost you over £20 per month. With **Ultimate TV priced at £24 per month** , you'll effectively pay just £4 each month for the Sky Stream set-top box, access to 90 free-to-air channels delivered over the internet, and paid-for channels like Sky Atlantic, Sky Comedy, Sky History, MTV, and Comedy Central.\n\nYou'll also have access **to the relaunched Sky One** , which returns to your TV Guide after a six-year absence.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nEverything is streamed via a Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection in **High Definition** , something that carried an extra £9 charge _every_ month with Sky Q.\n\nThere's no need for a satellite dish with any of the latest Sky TV hardware, so you'll be able to set up **Sky Stream** , **Sky Glass Gen 2** , and **Sky Glass Air** yourself with a few taps on the remote.\n\nIf you were to subscribe to each of these separately:\n\n * **Netflix Standard with Ads** | £5.99\n * **Disney+ Standard with Ads** | £5.99\n * **HBO Max Basic with Ads** | £4.99\n * **Hayu** | £5.99\n * **discovery+ Entertainment** | £3.99\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nWith so many streamers bundled with the flagship Sky Ultimate TV package, SkyOS has been updated to make it easier to juggle between exclusive shows. The custom-designed software can suggest new shows, films, documentaries, and upcoming sports fixtures from _all_ of these streamers.\n\n### LATEST DEVELOPMENTS\n\n\n\n\n * **Millions of WhatsApp users placed on red alert **\n * **Sold-out Freely TV box returns to Amazon with a cheaper price tag ******\n * **Best VPN deals **\n * **HBO Max confirms UK price for all-new shows, films, and TNT Sports ******\n * **Now traditional landlines will be 'switched off' for extra 1.23m in UK******\n * **Best Sky Glass deals**\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThese personalised recommendations are based on your viewing history and will appear in the carousel at the top of the main menu. SkyOS will refresh these suggestions multiple times per day.\n\nSkyOS has updated **Continue Watching** , which brings together boxsets and blockbusters that you're currently watching, to support Netflix, HBO Max, discovery+, Disney+, and Hayu. While Netflix shows have been integrated into this feature for some time, Disney+ wasn't supported.\n\nWith the latest refresh, you'll no longer need to memorise _which_ streaming service catalogue houses your favourite shows – with everything presented in a single carousel, bringing together _everything_ you're watching from across the biggest streamers.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIf you already have a subscription with Disney+, you'll be able to bring over your existing account — complete with your viewing history and personalised recommendations – to your Sky TV account. If you already pay for Ultimate TV, your standalone subscription to Disney+ will be cancelled, saving you £5.99 per month.\n\nWith a few taps, you'll have the option to upgrade to **Disney+ Standard** or **Disney+ Premium** from the app on your Sky TV box. You'll still keep the £5.99 saving and just pay the difference for these ad-free plans. Sky has employed the same system with Netflix for some time, which is bundled with _all_ of its plans\n\nThe overhaul of Ultimate TV is scheduled for **March 2026** , although the exact date hasn't been confirmed. The changes will apply to new subscribers and existing Sky TV customers on the Ultimate TV bundle. It'll take a _little_ longer for Hayu to launch on the service. From March, fans can enjoy a taste of Hayu’s top shows including _Below Deck, Below Deck Mediterranean, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills_ , and _The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City_ but the complete back catalogue accessed via the app won't arrive until later.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nSky Q viewers will also see the changes in the coming weeks. You'll need to subscribe to Ultimate TV, Sky Signature, Sky Entertainment, or another eligible Sky Q package to unlock Disney+ Standard with Ads, HBO Max Basic With Ads and Hayu content added to their pack alongside Sky TV.\n\nSky Chief Consumer Officer, Sophia Ahmad, said: \"This marks a new era for Sky and NOW. In a world-first, we’re bringing together Sky, Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max and Hayu into a single Sky TV subscription. Nowhere else offers this breadth of incredible entertainment in a fully integrated experience, with everything customers love watching side by side so viewers can jump from show to show with ease.\n\n\"Millions of existing customers will get easy access to this new line-up as standard at unbeatable value. All NOW Entertainment customers will get access to HBO Max, included at no extra cost, fully integrated within the NOW app. We’re proud to continue Sky’s legacy of innovation, making it easier than ever for people to enjoy the very best entertainment and best experience, all in one place.”\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
