Fox Nation is also offering a presale on Sunday for consumers to become founding members of the service by purchasing limited edition packages ahead of the launch. The founding member packages range from $60 to $1,200 and include 1-, 2- or 3-year subscriptions along with extras including “challenge coins,” hats, medals, watches and rocks glasses.

The service is also pledging to donate $5 to Folds of Honor for any customers who sign up for Fox Nation on Veterans Day.

John Finley, senior vice president of development & production, reiterated that Fox Nation will serve as a complement to existing programming on Fox News Channel, and positioned the subscription service as an offering for “superfans.”

The official Fox Nation launch announcement arrives after Fox News first confirmed the service in February.

Fox Nation will be competing with other streaming news services but unlike most of the other offerings, Fox Nation is charging a monthly subscription fee.

This week, NBC News confirmed that its upcoming streaming news network will be called Signal and will tailor its programming to reach a predominantly younger audience. Signal, like CBS’s streaming news networks CBSN, will be free to view and ad-supported.
