Max Slashes Annual Streaming Plan Prices for Limited Time, Perfect for The Last of Us Season 2

With season two of *The Last of Us* now well underway—episode two just dropped—there’s never been a better moment to subscribe to Max. If you've been holding off on joining its expansive content library, now could be the perfect opportunity thanks to a limited-time offer on Max's yearly plans (see the latest deal at Max). The streaming service offers three subscription tiers: Basic With Ads, Standard, and Premium. These normally retail at $99.99/year, $169.99/year, and $209.99/year respectively—but for a limited time, they’ve been discounted to $79.99/year, $139.99/year, and $169.99/year.

Please note, this discount applies only to your first year of membership before reverting to the standard rate. What’s more, the offer is available until May 7, so it’s definitely worth acting fast if you want to lock in these lower prices today.

If you're looking to optimize your streaming budget this year, consider bundling Max with Disney+ and Hulu. We believe this is currently the best overall streaming bundle value available. Alternatively, Apple TV+ is offering a great introductory deal right now: $2.99/month for your first three months.
