Fox Streaming Service Named Fox One, Aims to Launch Ahead of Football Season

Fox is opening up about its upcoming direct-to-consumer streaming offering. The company revealed the upcoming streamer is named Fox One and it will launch ahead of the 2025 football season. The news was announced during the company’s Monday during its third quarter earnings call for 2025.

The streaming service was first announced in February during the company’s second earnings call. When it was first announced, CEO Lachlan Murdoch emphasized that the streamer is not meant to upend Fox’s role in the traditional TV bundle but that it’s supposed to be additive.

Unlike the rest of its broadcasting peers, Fox has largely stayed out of the streaming wars, instead prioritizing its broadcast and cable plays. Its main entries in streaming have been the Fox Nation streaming app, which includes exclusive programming and access to Fox News primetime shows on-demand, and the ad-supported service Tubi. Though Tubi does offer Fox content on its platform, the Gen Z and Millennial focused streamer licenses content from multiple different networks and streamers.

News of Fox’s upcoming streaming service came after the collapse of Venu, the sports-focused streamer that was a collaboration between Fox, Warner Bros. Discovery and Disney. Plans for this streamer were dropped in January. Around the same time that Venu was announced, Disney announced its plans to launch an ESPN standalone streaming service. That’s still in the works and, like Fox’s streamer, is expected to launch later this year.
