Super Bowl 52 is this Sunday and if you're like millions of Americans don't have cable anymore this is your guide to streaming the big game if you've got cable satellite or over-the-air antenna you're already set just turn on the game it's 6:30 p.m. Eastern turn to your local NBC affiliate which in New York City is channel 4 and you're good to go NBC is streaming the game for free through the NBC app and NBC sports apps so if you've got a set-top box like an Apple TV or Roku a fire TV or chromecast just download the NBC app it's free and then on Sunday there'll be a free stream to watch just the Super Bowl no cable login required there also be all the regular commercials that you get if you had a normal stream which is good if you don't particularly like football the stream is usually a couple seconds behind broadcast TV so if you don't want any big moments spoiled for you maybe stay off Twitter if you don't have a string box or Smart TV just pull up the NBC or NBC Sports websites on your computer plug in your HDMI cable and you'll still be able to watch the game on your TV again it's free no cable login required just for the super if you want to watch on your phone in the past few years you've only been able to watch over cellular if you had Verizon that exclusivity deal is over which means that you'll be able to watch on data through the NFL mobile or Yahoo sports apps lastly you should always have a backup so just in case NBC's app goes down you can set up an over-the-top streaming service like who lose live service YouTube TV sling TV or DirecTV now which all have free trials and you have that ready to go just in case something goes wrong no matter how you're watching though NBC's only airing the game in 1080p so if you're hoping to take advantage of your 4k TV you're gonna be a little disappointed that said some of the Olympics will be in 4k next week which is not so helpful to you and when we understand that football is largely an American affair if you live in England and we're hoping to catch the game you'll be able to do so on the BBC's apps and websites just remember that it doesn't actually air until 11:30 p.m. in London and if you live north of the border in Canada and want to catch up you'll be able to do so on CTV TSN and the CTV going thanks for watching and whether you're rooting for the Eagles the Patriots or Justin Timberlake a halftime show let us know in the comments who you're hoping to win the Super Bowl thank
