The closure of the discovery+ service in the Philippines will not affect the service in other markets and is not a reflection of Warner Bros. Discovery’s interest in ensuring meaningful presence in the Philippines.

HBO Go continues to grow in the Philippines. In the past year, viewers increased 37 percent, with total streaming hours increasing 2.5 times in 2022. “House of the Dragon,” “The Last of Us” and “Drag Race Philippines” were three of the country’s most popular shows over the past six months.

HBO Go also houses premium movies, series and specials from the iconic brands of HBO, Warner Bros. and DC.
