Can you watch Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi for free?

Find out the best way to stream and enjoy Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi right from your home theater.

The latest installment in the Star Wars franchise is a new animated series called Tales of the Jedi. If you’re a big Star Wars fan, there’s no doubt that you’re eager to dive into this new piece of the Star Wars universe. So, how can you watch Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi when it hits Disney+ at the end of October? Keep reading to find out.

Liam Neeson stars in Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi, which is an anthology series telling the origin story of Anakin Skywalker’s apprentice, Ahsoka Tano, in addition to the story of Count Dooku, who goes on a journey that leads him away from the life of a Jedi and into the dark side of the Force. Tales of the Jedi is slated to hit Disney+ on October 26, so you’ll want to be prepared to stream this exciting new animated show.

Tales of the Jedi is a Disney+ original, which means that’s the only place you’ll be able to watch the show. While there’s no way to watch Tales of the Jedi for free, you can absolutely save big on your Disney+ subscription. You can certainly pay for Disney+ on its own, but the cheaper way to enjoy Tales of the Jedi is to bundle your Disney+ subscription with Hulu and ESPN+ as part of the Disney Bundle. For only $13.99 per month, you’ll gain unlimited access to all of the content these three streamers have to offer, so in addition to enjoying Tales of the Jedi, you can enjoy Hulu’s new horror film Matriarch as well as countless other programs.

If you plan to watch Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi from outside of the United States,  you’ll have to take one additional step. Streaming services typically allow you to only watch the content that’s available in the country that you’re in. So, in order to watch Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi while you’re traveling, you’ll need to sign up for a VPN service. A VPN essentially tricks websites into thinking that you’re located in the United States even when you’re abroad, so when you sign in, you’ll be able to watch anything you want from anywhere you want. One of the best VPN providers available at the moment is NordVPN, so make sure you sign up for the service before you head out on your next trip.

Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.

What is AV2, and why should viewers care?

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
