Discovery+ raises prices after Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery merger — Engadget

Streaming service Discovery+ has increased the price of both monthly plans. The ad-supported subscription now costs $7 per month, up by $1, while the ad-free plan has risen by $2 to $12 per month.

New prices for subscribers

As Engadget reports, the new prices took effect on Tuesday for new users. Existing subscribers were given 30 days’ notice: the new price will apply to the first bill issued on or after November 12.

More current news is available on the UA.News Telegram channel Telegram.

The previous increase in Discovery+ subscription prices took place in January 2025. The current change came about a week after the official merger of Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery, which resulted in the creation of Skydance.

Plans for streaming platforms

Skydance has signaled its intention to combine Paramount+ and HBO Max into a single offering. At the same time, Engadget suggests that further price increases and cost-cutting measures may be possible as the company begins to address the $80 billion debt it assumed.
