How to watch The Expanse season 6 online

It’s very rare to see a show release simultaneously all over the world, but that’s exactly what will happen with The Expanse. Fans in more than half a dozen countries will get to stream the season six premiere on Friday, December 10, with a new episode airing every week following. Below, we’ll let you know which streaming service this show is on and how you can watch The Expanse season 6 from abroad.

The Expanse is very popular, which makes it likely that there’ll be unauthorized streams available. However, we recommend avoiding these. To begin with, they tend to have very poor video quality. Further, third-party sources are frequently taken offline for copyright violation, which could leave you without a way to finish the series. Luckily, it’s extremely simple to stream The Expanse online, making unofficial sources completely unnecessary.

This show will only be shown on one geo-restricted streaming platform. As such, you’ll need a VPN to watch if you’re traveling abroad and want to watch on your usual home services.

How to stream The Expanse season 6 from abroad using a VPN

Don’t worry: even if you’ve never used a VPN before, you can unblock The Expanse in a matter of minutes. Below is a quick step-by-step guide to streaming region-locked content with a VPN.

Here’s how to watch The Expanse season 6 online from anywhere:

1. First, you’ll need a VPN. We recommend NordVPN, but Surfshark and ExpressVPN are both exceptional choices as well.
2. Now, download your chosen provider’s app. Make sure to install it on any device you plan on streaming with. Often, you’ll be allowed five connections at once, but this varies from one VPN service to another.
3. Log into the VPN app and connect to a server in the US. Depending on which VPN you’re using, other countries may work too. However, as providers tend to prioritize unblocking US streaming services, American servers are the most reliable option here.
4. Visit Amazon Prime Video and play a video. It should begin right away, but if not, clear your cookies and refresh the page. Still having trouble? Contact your VPN’s support team and ask if there are specific servers designed for unblocking Amazon Prime Video.

How to watch The Expanse season 6 online

The sixth season of The Expanse will air exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. If you’re an Amazon Prime subscriber, you’ll have access to this service already, and can start streaming new episodes the moment they’re added on Friday, December 10. There doesn’t seem to be any kind of staggered release: if your local content library is getting The Expanse, it’s coming on December 10, regardless of where you are in the world.

Don’t have Amazon Prime? Prices vary, but in the US, a monthly subscription costs $12.99 USD. There are also discounts for students and those willing to pay for a year’s subscription upfront. Further, Amazon offers a 30-day free trial in many countries. What’s particularly interesting is that this isn’t a one-time thing; users are allowed to begin a trial as long as they haven’t already done so in the past 12 months.

Here are some of the countries where Amazon will be airing The Expanse season 6:

• USA: $12.99 USD per month
• UK: £7.99 per month
• Canada: $7.99 CAD monthly
• Australia: $6.99 AUD per month
• France: €5.99 every month
• Germany: €7.99 per month
• Spain: €3.99 monthly

In each of these locations, Amazon Prime also allows you to watch the first five seasons of The Expanse at no added cost. As such, it’s extremely easy to get caught up if you missed a few older episodes, or if you’ve decided to start watching from the beginning.

Although Amazon will be showing The Expanse in a huge number of countries, there’s no guarantee it’ll be available everywhere. However, you can stream this show from abroad by using a VPN. NordVPN unblocks the British and American versions of Amazon Prime Video, plus it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. This means you can try it out completely risk-free.

What is The Expanse season 6 about?

Thanks to the official trailer, we actually know a good amount about season 6. With it being the show’s final season (for now at least), there’s plenty to be resolved. We can expect to be launched straight into the action because this is by far the shortest season with just six episodes.

The solar system is at war as Marco Inaros launches asteroid attacks on Earth and Mars. The war and shared losses threaten to tear the Rocinante crew apart. Chrisjen Avasarala sends Bobbie Draper on a secret mission in an attempt to turn the tide. In the Belt, Drummer and her surviving family are on the run after betraying Marco.

Will The Expanse be returning for season seven?

You might have heard that The Expanse was canceled, and that’s technically true; Syfy dropped it in 2018 after its third season. However, the show was picked up by Amazon Prime Video where it has stayed from seasons four to six. Unfortunately though, season six is set to be the final season of the show or, at the very least, the end of its run on Amazon Prime Video.
