How to watch Super Bowl 2024 on Roku

Here it is If you are looking for a way to stream Super Bowl 2024 on your Roku device, you've come to the right place. As some of the best streaming devices available, Roku is a great alternative to watching streaming services and cable alternatives alike.

In fact, our top pick among all the streaming devices you can watch the big game on is the Roku Streaming Stick 4K. It offers great picture quality and speedy performance on any TV and access to almost any smart TV app you want. If you already have a Roku device or smart TV installed, there's no need to stress about watching the 49ers-Chiefs game.

Having the right streaming device is more important than ever this year. For the first time in broadcast network history, CBS will offer a live stream of Super Bowl 2024 in 4K and 4K High Dynamic Range (HDR) broadcast.

While 1080p full HD HDR broadcasts are available on most platforms, including Paramount Plus, 4K HDR broadcasts are limited to a few partners. Fortunately, if you have a traditional cable package, there is a good chance that your CBS HD delivery will be in 4K resolution with HDR.

Some of the best cable alternatives also offer this high-resolution feed, though for an additional fee; Tom's Guide's top pick is Fubo, which offers Super Bowl 2024 in 4K to all Elite and Premier plan subscribers; YouTube TV also offers a 4K HDR feed with 4K Plus. Sadly, our favorite cable alternative, Sling TV, does not offer CBS, so we are missing this year's Super Bowl 2024 live stream entirely.

So without further ado, here's everything you need to watch the Super Bowl on Roku

International sports fans and those who want to watch the big game in 4K should set up their Fubo Roku channel before game time.

Admittedly, Fubo is a bit expensive; a 4K streaming plan costs at least $89.99 per month. But for that amount, you get over 254 channels, 1000 hours of cloud DVR, and simultaneous viewing on up to 10 screens.

If you are not looking for a long-term subscription, a 7-day free trial is also available.

Another way to watch Super Bowl 2024 on Roku is through Hulu with Live TV ($76.99/month). Note, however, that Hulu with Live TV delivers video up to 1080p resolution and 60 frames per second. It does not offer 4K streaming at this time. Nevertheless, Hulu with Live TV is very affordable. This cable alternative also includes the three best streaming services, Hulu, Disney Plus, and ESPN Plus (all with ads).

There is probably a local CBS network in your area, but be sure to click "Show Channels in Your Area" when signing up for Hulu. Then enter your zip code and press submit to see if CBS is available. Just don't go looking for the "Hulu + Live TV" app; Hulu's Live TV service is in the Hulu Roku channel.

Finally, YouTube TV is rich in sports content. The company is currently running a promotion, with subscriptions going for $62.99 per month for the first three months and $72.99 after that. If you want to stream games in 4K, you will need to add the $4K Plus add-on for $9.99/month.

Like most cable TV, YouTube TV offers a free trial to watch the big game; sign up when you download the YouTube TV Roku channel.

What if you don't want to pay for yet another subscription service? There is good news and bad news.

Unfortunately, CBS will not be offering a free stream of the Super Bowl. But that doesn't mean you have to miss out: new Paramount Plus users can watch the big game for free by signing up for a 7-day free trial of either the "Essentials" basic plan or the ad-free premium version, which includes Showtime The first two versions of the game are available. Paramount only offers a 1080p Full HD HDR feed, so you will miss the 4K stream, but free is free.

If you subscribe to cable, you can also watch the games on Roku's CBS Sports app.

We tested all the best streaming devices, and the $49 Roku Streaming Stick 4K was crowned the best on the market. The most notable feature for watching the Super Bowl is a more stable Wi-Fi extender.

You don't need Dolby Vision or Atmos for movies or TV; check out the $39 Roku Express 4K Plus.

And if you want the ultimate experience, the $99 Roku Ultra has Roku's best Wi-Fi range and wired Ethernet options for ultra-reliable connectivity from anywhere in the house.
