After tremendous success in the United States, Tubi's free streaming platform is expanding its operations. The service has just reached the United Kingdom, and this is not the final move by the company's owners, writes Gazeta.pl.

In May, the Tubi platform recorded a record month in the USA. The number of registered users exceeded 80 million. As Fox writes, in this way, the service matched Disney Plus in the United States. Tubi is a free platform sustained by advertisements shown to users.

After its successes in the USA, the service set its sights on another market. "Fox Corporation, owned by Rupert Murdoch, has already launched the service in the United Kingdom. The platform has over 20,000 titles to offer, including content from Disney, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, and Sony Pictures," reports Gazeta.pl.

According to the Variety portal, entering the United Kingdom is not Tubi's final expansion. The platform plans to introduce its offerings to other European markets as well.
