Crunchyroll announced a new, free 60-day subscription trial for the Mega Fan tier of its service. The deal is a PlayStation-related offer, and people can only claim it until October 24, 2024. This comes as the Fall 2024 anime season begins.
As expected from the promotion, there are a number of conditions attached to it. The big one is that you must be entirely new to Crunchyroll to take part in the 60-day Mega Fan free trial subscription. Even if you had the lowest Fan tier one in the past, you’re disqualified. This window lasts five years, so you can only take advantage if you haven’t subscribed since October 11, 2019.
The second stipulation is that the dates and regions are limited. The trial can only be started between now and October 24, 2024. The rules also noted it needs to be redeemed through PlayStation platform links like the one before. So people in China, Crimea, Cuba, Donetska, Iran, Luhanksa, North Korea, Sudan, and Russia can’t take part. If someone is in Quebec, they can only get the first 30 days of a membership for free.
When you sign up, you also must attach a credit card or payment method to the account to take part as well. This is because it will automatically charge you at the end of the free trial for your first month of Mega Fan if you don’t cancel it before the 60 days are up.
The Crunchyroll Mega Fan subscription tier being highlighted in the 60-day free trial is the mid-tier plan from the streaming service. It is normally $11.99 per month before taxes. That lets you have four devices on the same account streaming at once and let you download shows for offline viewing. There are no ads. It also lets you play the mobile Crunchyroll Game Vault titles. There are Crunchyroll Store promotions and sales as well, with a 10% discount in effect on some items as long as you subscribe.
There are two other tiers at the company, as a reminder. The $7.99 Fan option gives you 5% off at the Crunchyroll Store and lets you stream ad-free on one device. The $15.99 Ultimate Fan tier of the service ups the device count to six, gets you 15% off at the store on some items, and means you get a “swag bag” after you’ve been a member for a year.
The Crunchyroll 60-day free trial via PlayStation links is available to claim until October 24, 2024.
