HBO Max expands with 12 new Asia Pacific launches

HBO Max is moving forward with its global reach by rolling out in 12 regions within the Asia Pacific.

Warner Bros. Discovery is set to introduce HBO Max on March 26 in areas like Bhutan, Fiji, Kiribati, Maldives, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Niue, Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu.

This move comes after HBO Max's entry into Italy and Germany and just before its expected launch in the UK and Ireland, also happening in March.

HBO Max offers a wide range of content including DC Universe programming, Cartoon Network classics, and HBO favorites, alongside Max Originals, blockbuster films, and series from Discovery and TLC.

At the commencement, audiences can look forward to Oscar nominees Sinners and One Battle After Another, HBO hits like House of the Dragon, The Pitt, and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, plus fresh releases like the comedy Rooster and the third season of Euphoria.

Currently, the HBO service can be accessed in 112 countries worldwide.

HBO Max's parent firm, WBD, is experiencing a significant turning point as Paramount has increased its offer to purchase the company.

The new proposal, estimated at roughly $32 per share, might disrupt the present agreement with Netflix, which is set at $27.75 per share, plus the value of the spin-off Discovery Global segment.
