Sky is set to introduce a new Ultimate plan in 2026, which will combine premium channels like Sky Atlantic, Sky One, and Sky Documentaries with popular streaming services Netflix and Disney+. Additionally, the upcoming HBO Max will be included in the package when it launches later this week. Subscribers will also get access to Hayu later in the year, offering a variety of reality TV content to UK viewers.
Sky has surprised fans by offering an early preview of Hayu with a new update called “Taste of Hayu.” This preview features over 150 episodes from popular franchises such as Below Deck Mediterranean, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, and Vanderpump Rules.
The preview is available to Sky Stream and Sky Glass customers with the Ultimate TV package, as well as Sky Q and Sky+ users, with selected seasons available on demand. The full rollout of Hayu in July will unlock the complete catalogue, offering hundreds of additional series for reality TV fans to enjoy. New episodes of major shows will be available on the same day they air in the US, all included within the Sky TV experience.
In a statement, Sky mentioned, “Reality fans are in for a treat, with a selection of Hayu’s most talked-about shows now available to watch for Sky TV subscribers.” Customers can enjoy select seasons of their favorite shows straight from their homepage, on demand, and included within their subscription, providing a preview of what to expect before the full launch of Hayu on Sky in July.
Hayu will join Netflix and Disney+ in the Ultimate package, with HBO Max set to arrive next week and full integration of Hayu later in the year.
The new £24 package includes:
– Netflix Standard with Ads
– Disney+ Standard with Ads (from March)
– HBO Max Basic with Ads (launching in the UK & Ireland on 26 March)
– Hayu (full access from July, with preview content available from March)
– Over 130 Sky channels
