The Middle East’s biggest streaming power move: OSN+, Shahid, and Disney+ unite in one epic bundle

ADAM D.

Dec 19

n a move that feels like assembling the Avengers of TV and film — but with local flavor — three major streaming services are bundling up for audiences across the Gulf region. OSN+, Shahid, and Disney+ have officially launched a combined subscription bundle that gives viewers access to all three platforms under one unified plan, available exclusively through Shahid. 

Think of it like this: one subscription card in your digital wallet, three streaming titans at your fingertips — whether you’re in the mood for Game of Thrones’-level drama, Marvel blockbuster-style spectacle, or docos and originals rooted in the Arab world. It’s the kind of alliance that fans hypothetically pitch when they’re doodling crossover posters late at night (yes, Jon Snow sharing popcorn with Iron Man and Jabal Sheikh Al Jabal — whoever that cultural icon may be).

What’s in the Bundle — And Why It Matters

This isn’t one app that merges everything under a single UI — you’ll still launch Shahid, Disney+, and OSN+ as separate apps — but here’s the important bit: you pay one subscription fee and get all three together, with unified billing through Shahid. 

The bundle is being marketed as “three services for the price of two,” which is a clever way of saying you get more value without juggling three separate accounts and payment cycles. 

Here’s how the content stacks up:

  • Shahid: The region’s leading Arabic streaming platform, known for its strong lineup of Arabic originals, local dramas, sport content, and live channels. 
  • Disney+: The global entertainment powerhouse brings Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic and general entertainment to the table — a huge library spanning decades. 
  • OSN+: A premium hub for HBO content, international series, Hollywood hits, and curated global programming. 

From FX’s Shōgun to blockbuster animated hits like Lilo & Stitch, from Arabic originals like Al Dariya to HBO’s prestige dramas, this bundle spans a massive range of genres and audiences. 

Launch, Availability & Access

The bundle launched on 18 December 2025 and is available across the GCC countries — including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman — through the Shahid app or website. 
Subscription activation is done through Shahid. After signing up, users can link their OSN+ account (or create one) so that all three services become accessible under that single subscription flow.

There are no plans yet to merge the individual apps into a single super-app — but the unified billing and combined content library already represent a giant step toward simplifying streaming in a region where choice was increasingly overwhelming. 

Why This Deal Is a Big Deal

Strategically, this partnership sends a strong message: amid global competition from Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, and local rivals, these three services are pooling strength to win regional viewers with better value and convenience.

Executives from each company have framed the deal as part of a broader ambition to “shape the future of entertainment in the Middle East,” emphasizing quality, variety, and ease of access. This is exactly the kind of consumer-friendly move that can turn passive flippers of content into committed subscribers — especially during holidays and peak viewing seasons.

Pricing: Two Tiers, One Very Clear Value Proposition

The bundle launches with two pricing options, both available exclusively in the GCC:

Epic Bundle – AED 89.99 / month

This is the core bundle, aimed squarely at entertainment lovers.

You get:

  • Full access to Disney+
  • Full access to Shahid
  • Full access to OSN+
  • A single monthly payment
  • One of the strongest combined content libraries ever offered in the region

From exclusive Arabic originals to global adventures and Western blockbusters, this tier is essentially saying: why choose, when you can have it all?

Epic Bundle | Sports – AED 119.99 / month

This tier adds one crucial ingredient: sports.

Everything from the standard Epic Bundle, plus:

  • Shahid’s sports content
  • Live matches and sports programming alongside movies and series

It’s positioned as the “no compromises” option — binge your shows, then switch straight into match night without changing subscriptions.

It’s a bold regional first — one that signals a new phase in how content is packaged and delivered in the Middle East. Not quite the superhero crossover event we hoped Marvel would give us, but maybe the next-best thing for your binge-watch queue.
