FOX was the last major broadcast network to let fans stream its live sports without a traditional TV provider login. NBC had Peacock. CBS had Paramount+. ESPN had its own app. FOX had … nothing.
That finally changed in August 2025, when FOX One launched as the company’s first direct-to-consumer streaming service built for the 65+ million U.S. households living outside the cable bundle. Fox Corporation strategically timed the debut right ahead of the packed NFL season, ensuring cord-cutters had immediate access to live in-market and nationally televised games.
Whether you’re a die-hard football fan, a NASCAR devotee, or a soccer supporter locked in on the 2026 FIFA World Cup, here’s everything you need to know about streaming sports on FOX One.
What sports channels does FOX One include?
A base FOX One subscription bundles five core sports channels in one app: FOX (your local broadcast station), FS1, FS2, Big Ten Network, and Fox Deportes. That lineup covers an impressive cross-section of American athletics, including NFL regular-season and playoff games on FOX, college football and basketball across the FOX Sports networks, NASCAR Cup Series races, INDYCAR, MLB games, and international soccer on FS1, FS2, and Fox Deportes.
Both the monthly and annual plans stream in 1080p and 4K UHD with ads included. A 3-day free trial is available if you want to test-drive the service before committing.
How much does FOX One cost for sports fans?
Navigating the pricing tiers of FOX One depends entirely on how many add-on channels your household needs to complete its sports setup. The monthly and annual base subscriptions include the core FOX-branded feeds, but fans looking for expanded gridiron coverage or regional college sports can supplement their plan with B1G+ or ESPN Unlimited.
Additionally, current Verizon myPlan and myHome subscribers can add FOX One as a premium entertainment perk for just $15/mo., unlocking an easy $5 monthly savings off the standard tier.
Below is a breakdown of the standard subscription pricing and available bundle features. Just note that if you have an existing TV subscription, you can bypass the base subscription with your current TV provider credentials.
| Plan | Price | What"s included |
|---|---|---|
| FOX One Monthly | $19.99/mo. | FOX, FS1, FS2, Big Ten Network, Fox Deportes (1080p/4K, ads included, 3-day free trial) |
| FOX One Annual | $199.99/yr. | Same channel lineup (saves roughly $40 vs. paying monthly) |
| FOX One w/ B1G+ | $32.98/mo. | An extra 1,700+ Big Ten digital-exclusive events |
| ESPN Unlimited, FOX One Bundle | $39.99/mo. | Full FOX suite, plus ESPN"s complete linear network lineup via the ESPN app |

The 2026 FIFA World Cup on FOX One
If there’s one reason to subscribe to FOX One this summer, this is it. FOX One is streaming all 104 FIFA World Cup 2026 matches live from June 11 through July 19. This is the platform’s biggest live-streaming test to date, and it’s the defining sports moment of FOX One’s young life.
Fox Corporation holds the English-language U.S. broadcast rights for the 2026 tournament, which means every match that airs on FOX or FS1 is also available to stream on FOX One. For soccer fans who cut the cord, or who never had a cable subscription in the first place, FOX One is the most affordable way to stream the entire tournament.
The ESPN Unlimited, FOX One Bundle is a sports power move
If the FOX One base plan isn’t enough for your sports interests, you can get access to ESPN’s full suite of linear channels for an extra $20 a month. This combined package lets you track over 50,000 live events a year across both media empires, making it the most comprehensive single-billing cord-cutting package available.
Here are the additional live networks you get through the ESPN app when signing up for this bundle.
- ESPN
- ESPN2
- ESPNU
- ESPNEWS
- ESPN Deportes
- SEC Network
- ACC Network
- ESPN on ABC
For the all-in sports fan, the $39.99/mo. bundle is the most comprehensive cord-cutting sports package available from a single subscription. But it’s worth comparing it against robust live TV streaming services like DIRECTV or YouTube TV before you commit.
Multi-sport Big Ten fans will want the B1G+ add-on
FOX One offers the Big Ten Plus (B1G+) add-on at $12.99/mo. on top of the $19.99/mo. base plan, bringing the total to $32.98/mo. This tight integration is a massive benefit — previously, B1G+ operated only as a standalone subscription through its own separate app.
The add-on unlocks 1,700+ non-televised Big Ten events, including live volleyball, wrestling, baseball, softball, soccer, and field hockey. It also provides next-day on-demand replays for matchups that aired on traditional TV networks.
There’s a critical user friction point, though. Standalone B1G+ subscriptions don’t transfer directly over to your FOX One account. If you’re already a B1G+ subscriber through the standalone app, that login won’t activate the FOX One add-on. You’ll need to manually cancel your original plan and re-subscribe through the FOX One platform to consolidate your apps.
FOX One streaming features worth knowing
Cloud DVR: FOX One includes a built-in cloud DVR that saves recordings for up to 270 days (roughly nine months). You can “favorite” a specific team or sports league, and the app will auto-record new games. Note that some live events may be restricted from saving due to legacy broadcast rights limitations.
AskFOX AI: FOX One’s built-in AI assistant delivers personalized watch picks, real-time box scores, and ongoing game updates directly within the video player.
Multiview: This feature lets you stream up to four live feeds simultaneously on a single screen. It’s exceptionally smooth and serves as a vital tool during packed college football Saturdays or overlapping MLB postseason nights.
Is FOX One worth it for sports fans?
The short answer: yes, for most FOX-specific sports fans — with a few caveats. At $19.99/mo., FOX One is reasonably priced for the volume of premium tier-1 live coverage it provides. The inclusion of local NFL games alone justifies the price tag for cord-cutters, and having a reliable app for the entire World Cup makes it an essential summer addition.
The cost math gets more complicated the deeper you go. Adding the ESPN bundle pushes the price to $39.99/mo., which starts approaching the price floor of Sling TV‘s base plans and DIRECTV Genre Packs. Adding B1G+ brings the total to $32.98/mo. And if you’re a Big Ten fan who still needs CBS, NBC, or Peacock for games on those networks, you’re looking at multiple monthly bills to get the complete picture.
Ultimately, the fragmentation of sports rights remains the defining frustration of the streaming era, and FOX One doesn’t solve that problem. It just gives FOX’s piece of the puzzle its own front door. Still, firing up a 3-day free trial during a packed sports weekend is the best way to decide if FOX One is actually worth your money.
