HBO Now heads to consoles with Xbox One and Xbox 360 apps (and some Samsung Smart TVs too)
0
HBO Now has come a long way on app support since launching exclusively on Apple TV one year ago. The streaming service has now added its first console apps for Xbox 360 and Xbox One, along with support for new Samsung Smart TVs.
HBO Now is a $15-per-month standalone streaming service, which offers the full HBO catalog of original shows, movies, documentaries, and specials. Although it doesn’t include a live feed of HBO’s cable channel, some shows—including Game of Thrones—become available at the same time as the live telecast. (Cable subscribers who get HBO can instead use the existing HBO Go app for Xbox consoles at no extra charge.)
