5 Plus (stylized as 5PLUS) was a Philippine free-to-air television network owned by Nation Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) and jointly operated by TV5 Network, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MediaQuest Holdings, Inc. media arm of PLDT Beneficial Trust Fund.
Named after its parent station, 5 Plus served as complementary channel for 5 with its programs primarily produced by its sports division, ESPN5. 5 Plus was launched on January 13, 2019, as AksyonTV, a Filipino-language news and public affairs channel launched by TV5 in 2011, bifurcated into two new separate channels (the other one being One PH on Cignal).[1]
However 14 months after its launch, on March 7, 2020, 5 Plus ceased its broadcasting to give way for One Sports.[2]
