The new Xbox One app, available free to users, offers a feature set similar to FUNimation's PS4(TM) app which was released in April. Functionality includes video queuing, history syncing with FUNimation.com, autoplay and search capability as well as marathoning and a unique feature exclusive to the Xbox One called Snap. With Snap, a user can navigate and watch an anime video in the app on a sidebar while simultaneously playing games or exploring other Xbox apps!
"We are pleased to bring FUNimation's leading streaming service to the Xbox One platform via our new feature-rich app," said Gen Fukunaga, CEO and founder of FUNimation Entertainment. "With unique features like Snap, we are enabling fans to watch their anime whenever, wherever, and however they want."
FUNimation offers several subscription options to enjoy its streaming service. Only All-AccessPass subscribers get unlimited access to FUNimation's Broadcast Dubs, English dubs of select shows released only weeks after airing in Japan, plus exclusive offers online and at conventions. In addition,
All-AccessPass subscribers can watch FUNimation's entire library of content - the latest simulcast shows and an almost endless catalog of dubbed and subtitled anime episodes and movies - all in HD, commercial-free. SubPass subscribers can watch the latest simulcast shows, as well as a huge library of subtitled content, also in HD, commercial-free. FreePass members can check out a variety of current simulcasts and sign up for a free 14-day trial.
"With more ways to watch our compelling slate of anime titles, summer couldn't get much better," said Mike DuBoise, EVP and COO of FUNimation. "Our biggest simulcast season ever - 20 new and returning shows - and this week's launch of our Xbox One app, means now is truly the best time to become a subscriber of our FUNimation streaming service."
FUNimation's streaming service is available on multiple platforms, including the PS4 and PS3 systems, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Roku, iOS, and Android. Paid subscription pricing starts as low as $3.33 per month.
