After years of development, including COVID-related delays, the Halo TV show starring Pablo Schreiber as Master Chief is finally set to debut this week. In this post we're rounding up how to watch the show in the US and around the world, and in some cases, you might be able to stream the series without paying extra.
The Halo TV series was originally slated for Showtime, but it shifted to Paramount+ where it becomes one of the upstart streaming platform's first high-profile productions. Some of Paramount+'s other marquee original shows include the Yellowstone prequel 1883, Star Trek Picard, and Mayor of Kingstown.
Anyone in the US, Canada, Latin America, Australia, and the Nordics can subscribe to Paramount+ with plans that start at $5/month after a free seven-day trial. Paramount+ has Essential [$5/month with ads] and Premium [$10/month with mostly no ads] options, while subscribers can pay monthly or annually. The annual option comes with a savings of 16% compared to paying monthly.
For fans outside of Paramount+'s supported regions, the Halo TV series will stream in Italy and Germany on Sky, while people in France can watch through Canal+. UK fans won't get to stream the show officially until it arrives on Sky through Paramount+ this summer, though people in the UK--or anywhere else, really--can watch the Halo series with a VPN. This isn't always guaranteed to work, however.
All Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can, beginning March 23, get a free 30-day trial of Paramount+. Anyone who subscribers today will be able to watch the majority of the Season 1 episodes with the trial.
The first two Halo episodes will arrive at 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET on March 24. There are nine episodes in Season 1, and they will be released
