Now Available On Amazon Fire TV: Sling TV, FOX Sports GO, and More
Amazon Fire TV selection up 5x since launch
Starting today, customers who purchase 3 months of Sling TV can now get a Fire TV Stick for free
Other popular game additions include Crossy Road, Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series, OlliOlli and Always Sometimes Monsters
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2015-- (NASDAQ: AMZN)-Amazon today announced that Fire TV's selection is up 5x since its launch in April, with 2015 best-of-CES Sling TV now available for download as well as other popular services and games such as FOX Sports GO, TED, WSJ Live, Crossy Road, and Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series.
The growth of apps and games available on Amazon Fire TV has been tremendous since launch-selection is up 5x since April, and many popular titles such as FOX Sports GO and Flappy Birds Family have launched exclusively on the Fire TV platform, said Steve Rabuchin, Vice President Amazon Appstore. We're especially excited to be one of the first platforms to launch the Sling TV app-we think Fire TV and Fire TV Stick customers are going to love it.
To celebrate the launch of Sling TV-a $20 per month, Internet-based television service delivering live sports and entertainment from channels like ESPN, TNT and TBS-customers who purchase 3 months of Sling TV can now get a Fire TV Stick for free or opt for $50 off a Fire TV (normally $99)-order today at www.amazon.com/slingtvoffer.
Since April, multiple apps and games have launched exclusively on the Fire TV platform including apps such as FOX Sports GO, Flappy Birds Family, Game of Thrones - A Telltale Games Series and Minecraft Pocket Edition. In addition, publisher Devolver Digital has exclusively launched popular games on Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick that have previously only been available for console and PC gaming including Luftrausers, Always Sometimes Monsters, and OlliOlli. Devolver Digital will bring six more games exclusively to Fire TV devices in the coming months including Gods Will Be Watching, Not a Hero, and Titan Souls.
Here's what developers are saying about the platform:
The response since we announced Sling TV at CES has been overwhelming, and we're excited to officially launch the service on a great platform, like Amazon Fire TV, said Sruta Vootukuru, director, business development and operations, Sling TV. Fire TV customers now have access to live sports, lifestyle, family, and news channels-all for $20 per month.
Adding FOX Sports GO to Amazon Fire TV is a great next step in enhancing our distribution and connecting with more sports fans, said Clark Pierce, FOX Sports, Senior Vice President, Mobile and Advanced Platforms. We're thrilled to make FOX Sports GO available on Amazon Fire TV and expand our roster of platforms.
Working with many indie developers, we are always thinking about how we can expand the reach of their games, said Harry Miller, Co-Founder at Devolver Digital. Bringing our games to Amazon Fire TV was a no brainer, as it brings our much loved and unique indie games, to the large global audience that Amazon reaches.
Customers of all ages have loved playing Crossy Road on their mobile devices, but we wanted to allow them to play the game with a controller in the hand and take the fun to the biggest screen in their homes - the TV in their living room, said Matt Hall from Crossy Road developer Hipster Whale. Fire TV is a fantastic platform that was easy to develop for and allowed us to quickly achieve our goal of getting this game to the living room.
