This includes an entire roster of new content featuring the likes of Star Wars new spin off TV show, Mandalorian and Avengers: Endgame, which is now going to be made stream able on November 12. Furthermore, a deal with Verizon has made the service free for the carrier’s wireless customers.

Disney has been dropping a trail of breadcrumbs for the past couple of months, hinting to the public, details linked to its upcoming streaming service. So, following that same trail, here is everything we know about Disney+ right now.

What is Disney+

According to the entertainment powerhouse, Disney+ is an American subscription video-on-demand service which is going to feature a ton of, both, new and old content, including TV shows and movies such as the Star Wars, Marvel and Pixar.

Furthermore, as part of Disney’s over-the-top strategy,

Disney+ is going to come equipped with both Hulu and ESPN+

Moreover, it is going to pack features similar to those available in other streaming services we see right now. It includes the ability to run up to four concurrent streams, unlimited downloads, and set up as many as seven profiles. Plus, a kids-specific profile will also be included which is going to come with a cleaner, more attractive interface and age-appropriate content.

A trial run for Disney+ went online in the Netherlands on September 12, 2019 which from what we know, was massively successful. It was a soft launch. As a result, none of the previously announced, original content was included. However, since it was also a free trial, most users stated that it is going to be the best streaming service than the ones currently available in the world right now.

Disney+ Planning to Release in Different Regions soon

The complete version of Disney+ is expected to land on 12th November 2019. However, during that, the service is only going to be available in the United States and Canada. Residents in Australia and New Zealand can enjoy Disney+ from 19th November 2019.

According to Disney, Western Europe will see the service make its way over the next six months. Disney+ is expected to land in Eastern Europe by March 2020. Fans of Disney in the Asia Pacific region and see the service launch for them over the next two years.

With so much hype following Disney+, people are wondering how much this service is going to cost since it offers Hulu and ESPN+. Well, it seemed like it might be quite expensive.

However, Disney has already announced that its upcoming service is going to be available for only $7 a month which is insane if compared to other streaming services which take more than double for the same or in some cases, fewer features. The bundle which includes Hulu and ESPN+ will cost around $12.99 per month, which is still lesser than most streaming services out there.

Furthermore, Disney just announced a brand new yearly package for Disney+, which is going to be made available for $70 (about $5.83 a month). This makes Disney+ much more affordable when compared to other streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max which are being offered for $15 a month. It is almost one-third the price.

The localized per month pricing for Disney+ are CAD 8.99 in Canada, €6.99 in Netherlands, AUD 8.99 in Australia, NZD 9.99 in New Zealand.

Just look at the comparison of different streaming services down below:

Streaming Services Prices

Final Words

With Disney+’s release just a few days away, we are going to be seeing a lot of changes in the world of streaming service, first of which is the complete removal of Disney content from Netflix and a few other services.

This is because Disney wants to keep the exclusive rights to its content, making Disney+ the only place to stream franchises like Star Wars, Marvel, and Pixar. However, nothing can be said for sure, as studios make last-minute changes all the time.

Furthermore, Netflix and Disney have a pretty complicated past as Netflix has canceled all 5 out of the 5 Marvel shows, which include Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Punisher, and Iron Fist. However, Kevin Mayer, the Disney executive in charge of Disney+ has stated that they might be considering reviving these shows in the future.
