ESPN Select (formerly ESPN+) now costs a minimum of $12.99 a month. The increase is part of a broad round of price increases that Disney has now rolled out to multiple streaming services, including ESPN Select.
Key Takeaways
- The cost of an ESPN Select monthly subscription has risen from $11.99 to $12.99 and the annual plan has increased by $10 to $129.99.
- All Disney Bundles that include ESPN Select have also gone up in price, with the increases ranging from $3 to $4 depending on the bundle.
- The newly launched ESPN Unlimited service is unaffected by these changes, remaining priced at $29.99/mo or $299.99/yr.
Shortly after the introduction of the new ESPN Unlimited service and confirmation the ESPN+ service was being rebranded as ESPN Select, Disney confirmed the cost of ESPN Select would increase in price in October.
That price increase has taken effect today (Oct. 21). With $1 added to the monthly price, the cost of a standalone ESPN Select package has now increased from $11.99 to $12.99 a month.
The price increase is now in effect for new subscribers signing up and existing subscribers can expect their price to increase by the same amount from today.
The exact date an existing subscriber’s price will increase depends on their individual billing cycle.
With the cost of the monthly plan having increased, so has the cost of the yearly plan. An ESPN Select annual subscription now costs $129.99 a year, resulting in a $10 annual increase.
Along with the monthly and annual standalone ESPN Select increases, the price of the various versions of the Disney Bundle that include ESPN Select have increased as follows.
| Bundle | New Price | Old Price |
|---|---|---|
| Disney+, Hulu, ESPN Select Bundle | $19.99 | $16.99 |
| Disney+, Hulu, ESPN Select Bundle Premium | $29.99 | $26.99 |
| Disney+ Premium, Hulu, ESPN Select Bundle | $24.99 | $21.99 |
Considering Disney only recently introduced the new ESPN Unlimited service, the ESPN Unlimited monthly and annual plans remain unaffected by this round of price increases. As a result, ESPN Unlimited remains priced at $29.99/mo and $299.99/yr.
The ESPN price increase is part of a wider round of price increases Disney has rolled out to multiple streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu and Hulu Live TV.
