Foxtel Play heads to Xbox One “in the coming months”

Foxtel and Microsoft today announced that Foxtel Play is heading to Xbox One “in the coming months”.

Ed Smith, Foxtel’s Executive Director of Sales and Marketing, said, “Foxtel and Xbox are synonymous with brilliant entertainment. Our shared history of filling living rooms with funny, adventurous, nail-biting and immersive experiences is what we live for and our partnership to bring Foxtel Play to Xbox 360 has been an unmeasured success for our customers. We’re thrilled to announce plans to add Foxtel Play to Xbox One and take that success even further.”

“With Xbox One, our aim is to deliver an all-in-one solution that couples industry leading games with best-in class film and TV entertainment experiences. This latest milestone in our already game-changing relationship puts the latest and greatest movies and TV shows into the hands of our fans, and adds to the ever growing line-up of Australian and international content available to all Xbox One owners,”  added Microsoft Australia Xbox lead, Jeremy Hinton.

Foxtel Play is already available on Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, Windows PC, Mac and select smart TVs and Blu-ray players.

A set launch for Foxtel Play on the Xbox One was not named. The service starts at $25 AUD per month, but has add-ons as well. For instance, the package with Showcase and Game of Thrones will set you back an extra $25 AUD a month. New users can sign up for a free 14-day trial here.
