Customers with Sky+ (with the full sports subscription) will receive the new Sky Sports+ Channel, 412 but will not have access to the live streams as Sky+ is not compatible with the Sky Sports App.
See the article in the News section at the top of the page
https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky-TV/Introducing-Sky-Sports/ba-p/4706785
Even though the Sky box doesn't support the new Sky Sports app that is showing the alternative games you can use the app on a mobile device such as iphone/ipad or Android mobile or tablet (but unfortunately not on a desktop)

@CHUCKY1 You might get the linear channel (this is yet to be confirmed though) but not the extra streams and additional features without using the sky sports mobile app

Re: can i get sky sports + if i only got sky hd box
Sky+ isn't included in Sky's article here: https://www.skygroup.sky/en-gb/article/introducing-sky-sports-giving-more-choice-to-sports-fans-via-...
"Once live, customers with a full Sky Sports subscription won’t need to do a thing; Sky Sports+ will simply drop into the existing Sky experience, across Sky Glass, Sky Stream, Sky Q, and NOW."
But that might simply be because Sky+ is a legacy platform which doesn't feature in Sky's news articles....

It's because Sky+ boxes are not capable of receiving the streams for the new sports service.

The article says there will be a linear channel too.

I would assume the linear channel would be available but the other streams will not.

Sky Sports app content and Sky plus customers
Is Sky Sports + going to be available on old SKY + H.D. boxes?

for the additional streams you need to use the sky sports app for mobile devices only

@theredhouse55555 That's correct it won't be on smart TVs (the only exception being sky glass or sky stream linked to a standard smart tv or now tv box linked to a standard smart tv)
the other alternative is to upgrade to sky Q

According to this "Once live, customers with a full Sky Sports subscription won’t need to do a thing; Sky Sports+ will simply drop into the existing Sky experience, across Sky Glass, Sky Stream, Sky Q, and NOW" ... any device with the NOWTV app wil be supported NOT only now tv boxes🤔
