Leading Pay TV giant Cignal TV announces the discontinuation of five major HBO Asia linear channels. Effective September 1, 2026, at 12:00 AM, subscribers will no longer find these networks on Cignal, while removal on Cignal Play is slated for August 16, 2026.
Affected Channels
The channels scheduled to stop broadcasting include:
* HBO
* Cinemax
* HBO Family
* HBO Signature
* HBO Hits
What's Next for Viewers?
This industry change highlights the ongoing global transition from traditional linear television toward direct-to-consumer streaming services, with platforms like HBO Max acting as the primary hub for Warner Bros. Discovery content.
However, Cignal is rolling out alternative viewing options to fill the gap. Subscribers will still be able to watch TAP Movies, alongside three newly introduced channels: Studio Universal and Bein Sports 1, 2, and 3.
