2 Oct
Summary
- Wild season begins Thursday without Xfinity/DirecTV deals.
- Wild+ subscription costs $19.99 monthly or $99.99 season.
- Spectrum TV and Fubo TV already offer Wild+ access.

The Minnesota Wild are set to launch their 2026-27 season on Thursday evening, yet a significant portion of their fanbase may encounter difficulties in viewing the games. As of the publication date, the Wild have not yet confirmed broadcast agreements for their new Wild+ channel with major providers like Comcast/Xfinity and DirecTV.
While expectations are that these deals will eventually be secured, fans subscribed through these services are currently left in limbo. Both DirecTV and Comcast/Xfinity have acknowledged ongoing discussions regarding the distribution of the Wild's new network. Fans are advised to contact their providers for updates.
Fans with existing subscriptions to Spectrum TV or Fubo TV will be able to access Wild+ content. Alternatively, in-market viewers can subscribe directly to Wild+ through Amazon Prime Video for $19.99 per month or $99.99 for the entire season, with a seven-day free trial potentially covering the initial games.
