GoKawiilESPN raises prices on Select, Unlimited plans and Disney+/Hulu bundles
ESPN is increasing subscription costs starting September 17, with ESPN Select rising to $14/month and ESPN Unlimited to $32/month. Several Disney+ and Hulu bundles that include ESPN Select are also going up by $2-3 per month, though ESPN Unlimited bundles remain unaffected.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
This marks the first price hike for ESPN's streaming tiers since the service overhauled its strategy last year, signaling that the new direct-to-consumer model is following the same inflationary path as traditional cable. Combined with recent increases from Peacock and Apple, it shows streaming services broadly are testing how much price sensitivity subscribers actually have.
- ESPN Select rises to $14/month, ESPN Unlimited to $32/month starting September 17
- Disney+/Hulu/ESPN Select bundles increase by $2-3 monthly, but ESPN Unlimited bundles are spared
- The hike follows similar recent price increases from Peacock and Apple services
