When Will Avengers Infinity War Be Available On Xfinity?
One of the most popular films of 2018, Avengers: Infinity War combined all the Marvel Cinematic Universe's superheroes to fight the most danger, the villain Thanos. Most of the viewers are keen to know when they may see Infinity War at home since the film has finished its theatrical run. The wait will not be much longer for Xfinity consumers, however.
Infinity War was made available digitally on July 31, 2018, three months following its theatrical debut. Nevertheless, the digital release was not directly accessible for rental or purchase through Xfinity. Although some digital retailers like those mentioned above got the green light to offer the movie, larger video-on-demand services like Xfinity could only offer Infinity War after a delay due to agreements on rights.
Normally, it takes Xfinity about 3-4 months to include new movies in its collection after the digital release date. Utilizing this timeline, Xfinity subscribers could expect Infinity War to be available on the platform sometime in October or November 2018. But till now, there is no fixed date for it.
Once live on Xfinity, Avengers: Being a Marvel movie, Infinity War will probably cost around $19.99 to buy in high definition. This will enable free viewing of the video on a one-time basis. Seasonal fluctuation is difficult to gauge, although new movie rentals on Xfinity top at $5.99. It may also attract an even higher rental price due to its popularity among the viewers.
Xfinity has confirmed that Avengers: When Infinity War does come in, it will be available for sale as well as for rent. Audiences will have to have an X1 set-top box for the 4K versions if available. Purchased content is also available through mobile applications and web browsers for customers who use Xfinity Stream.
So, as we wait for Infinity War to be available on Xfinity, viewers can watch other MCU movies that are currently available. Titles like Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok, Spiderman Homecoming, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 are now available. Avengers: It is helpful to do a quick refresher of your knowledge of previous movies because Infinity War provides the conclusion to many story arcs.
A few other places to watch Infinity War while it’s still not accessible on Xfinity include
YouTube / Google Play – can be bought now
Vudu – available for purchase now
Apple TV – buy in HD and 4K
Amazon Video – available for purchase at the moment
Disney Movies Anywhere – buy digital copy and watch on multiple devices
Since they acquired streaming rights before Xfinity, they are another way to own Infinity War digitally if you prefer to watch sooner. They are fairly reasonable and are comparable to what I expect Xfinity to offer. Just remember that buying on one site does not automatically mean transferring the rights to another site.
So when exactly can Xfinity subscribers expect Avengers: Do people want the movies of Infinity War to appear in their on-demand menu? An educated guess would be sometime towards the end of October because Xfinity got Guardians 2 four months after its disc/digital release. However, no known release date for Xfinity has been confirmed.
Streaming services do not have the rights to new releases of movies as a matter of course. Although Infinity War is a very recent movie in a very successful series of Marvel movies, having it on Xfinity is quite expected even if the timing of it is uncertain.
For hardcore Marvel fans, the only way to engage with them is to save some cash for when Infinity War finally comes to their preferred streaming service. Being one of the largest films in the history of cinema, it will be rather expensive in terms of purchase and rental prices. Staying up to date with the latest developments from Xfinity can also enable you to get a notice as soon as it goes live.
However, be sure to go back and watch some of the past MCU movies now available which laid the foundation for Thanos and Infinity War bringing all these superheroes together. And keep an eye out later this October/November for Avengers: From Infinity War to (hopefully) make its debut on Xfinity!
