Sky coming to Xbox 360 next month

Sky Player will be made available to UK Xbox 360 owners in October.

The October issue of Sky Magazine revealed the service will soon be available to download, with a web address revealing the month of release, according to Digital Spy.

The new service was announced in May, and will grant Xbox owners access to live television, as well as movies and on-demand content.

It will be available to Xbox Live Gold members, and Sky subscribers with certain movie or sports packages will be able to access premium content.

Sky Player will arrive as part of October’s dashboard update, which is also expected to include the previously announced Facebook and Twitter integration.
