After maintaining its distance from the frenzy of streaming wars for years, Fox Corp. finally launched its own direct-to-consumer platform called Fox One on Thursday. The initiative, which targets non-cable users, will put all of Fox Corp.'s owned brands under one app, from primetime shows to live sports. The service will be available to the public starting from August 21, 2025.
CEO Pete Distad, a former Apple TV+ executive, will spearhead the new platform and introduced it to the media last Tuesday. Distad launched the platform as a one-stop solution that will combine live TV (news and sports) with on-demand streaming of Primetime Fox shows.
Introducing Fox One, Distad said in a statement:
''Fox has maintained a discipline content strategy since 2019, primarily focused on live news, sports, and quality entertainment programming... ]The new platform] is bold, it’s immediate, and built around the moments that matter most.''
Over the years, while Fox Corp. acquired the ad-supported outlet Tubi and grew Fox Nation, they have mainly opted out of the crowded streaming marketplace. However, with the new platform, the company is ready to enter the over-competitive market head-on, under the leadership of Pete Distad.
