What's available

Germany's streaming landscape has grown significantly, and most major platforms are accessible. Here's what you can watch across the key services available in Germany right now.

  • Netflix Germany includes hits like Squid Game, Wednesday, Stranger Things, and German originals like Dark and Barbarians.
  • Amazon Prime Video offers The Boys, Rings of Power, Reacher, and local German content including Der Pass.
  • Disney+ covers Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar libraries, including Andor, Loki, and The Mandalorian.
  • Apple TV+ brings Severance, Ted Lasso, and The Morning Show — fully available in Germany.
  • Paramount+ is accessible via Paramount's own app or through Amazon, offering Yellowstone, 1923, and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.

What you're missing

Compared to the US libraries, Germany's catalogs have noticeable gaps. You'll find these popular titles unavailable or delayed:

  • Peacock originals like Poker Face and Bupkis — Peacock is not available in Germany at all.
  • Several Netflix US exclusives, including The Lincoln Lawyer Season 3 and certain comedy specials, are delayed or missing.
  • Max (HBO) is not directly available in Germany. Titles like The Last of Us, House of the Dragon, and True Detective: Night Country require workarounds.
  • Hulu content such as The Bear and Only Murders in the Building is completely inaccessible without a VPN.

How to access other regions

A VPN lets you connect through a server in another country, making streaming services think you're located there. To access the US library of Netflix, Max, Peacock, or Hulu, connect to a United States server. For UK-exclusive content, choose a UK server. We recommend NordVPN as the most reliable option — it consistently unblocks major streaming platforms and offers fast speeds for HD and 4K viewing.

Pricing

Pricing in Germany is generally as follows: Netflix starts at around €4.99/month (with ads), rising to €17.99 for the premium tier. Disney+ runs approximately €5.99/month. Amazon Prime Video is included with a Prime membership at around €8.99/month. Apple TV+ costs €9.99/month. Pricing can change, so always check the provider's German site for current rates.

Our recommendation

If you're in Germany and want the best streaming experience, combining Netflix, Disney+, and Apple TV+ covers most of your bases. However, to unlock premium US-only platforms like Max, Peacock, and Hulu, you'll want NordVPN running in the background. It's a small investment that dramatically expands what you can watch without waiting months for regional releases to catch up.
