Sony Pictures Television has activated Live TV on PS5 for U.S. users effective August 31, 2026, slotting over 100 ad-supported live channels plus on-demand titles directly into the console's Media tab.

Access requires a standard PlayStation account sign-in, no PS Plus subscription, with programming drawn from partners including Crunchyroll for anime channels like Black Clover exclusives, FOX and NBCUniversal for sports and news, NFL Channel, UFC, Lionsgate's MovieSphere, and series such as The Walking Dead and Community.

The service mirrors existing FAST platforms like Tubi in model and is positioned for eventual Canada rollout plus Bravia TV integration later in 2026, per Sony's announcement and coverage from multiple outlets.

Channel availability may vary by local market and content refreshes are promised over time.
