Overview
- Every playoff match streams to Apple TV subscribers at no extra charge, with MLS Season Pass not required for the postseason.
- The bracket begins with Wild Card games, moves to a best‑of‑three Round One, returns to single‑elimination later rounds, and concludes with MLS Cup on December 6.
- Fox Sports will air select U.S. playoff games, including the MLS Cup on the Fox broadcast network, while TSN and RDS provide coverage in Canada.
- Reporters characterize the open access as a postseason trial within Apple’s broader sports bundling strategy, ahead of F1TV Premium’s inclusion for U.S. subscribers in 2026.
- Apple cut MLS Season Pass pricing in September to $25 for Apple TV subscribers and $29 for non‑subscribers for a full season.
