After several days of hinting at a potential event, Apple has confirmed a special treat to wrap up the year—or kick off the new one, depending on how you see it. Indeed, their streaming service will be free for everyone this weekend. From January 4th to 5th, you can enjoy all Apple Originals content without needing a subscription.
48 Hours of Streaming
The tagline “See for yourself” was indeed a teaser for free access to the entire catalog over the weekend, a move anticipated by many. To access this offer, simply open the Apple TV app on any supported system.
This is a clever strategy to attract new subscribers and highlight key titles, such as the highly anticipated second season of Severance. For those who can’t wait, you can torture yourself with the first 8 minutes here.
The Future of Apple TV+
The platform now boasts 270 titles, which is modest compared to many other platforms but includes high-quality shows. With this approach, Apple TV+ has established itself as a major player in the streaming world, garnering prestigious awards since its launch.
With the growing strength of its original content and an expanding fan base, Apple TV+ looks set to make 2025 a landmark year, starting with the release of Severance Season 2. After a three-year wait, the series returns on January 17, 2025. Fans will see the continuation of Mark and his team’s adventures as they explore the consequences of separating professional and personal lives.
Also on the lineup is Prime Target, a new eight-episode British series launching on January 22, 2025. It follows Edward Brooks, a young mathematician portrayed by Leo Woodall, who finds himself at the center of a conspiracy threatening his work and his life.
Other upcoming content includes the fourth season of Mythic Quest, a comedy about a team of video game developers returning on January 29, 2025. This new season will explore the challenges faced by the studio, including a decline in player numbers and the cancellation of a major film project. Also coming are Blitz, Fly Me to the Moon, and the finale of Silo!
