Roku has announced the launch of Roku TV in Germany, marking the latest regional expansion for the company.
The company previously launched its streaming players in Germany in 2021, and has revealed Metz blue and TCL as the first partners to launch Roku TV models. Sets will be available from October in sizes varying between 32” and 65” in HD, 4K and 4K QLED.
Roku TV bakes the full Roku experience into smart TVs as the core operating system. It provides access to thousands of free and paid streaming channels such as Netflix and Pluto TV, while it also offers support for Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri.
VP International at Roku, Arthur van Rest said: “People transition more of their entertainment time to streaming, while continuing to watch a significant amount of broadcast TV, so we are excited to launch Roku TV in Germany and offer a great experience for both. German viewers want the best possible TV experience, something that includes all their favourite entertainment, is easy to use, and gets them to what they want to watch as quickly as possible.”
