They had a deal with Fox for broadcasting football in 4K at the beginning of the season but it never happened and the deal fell apart.

The latest wording on the page only states "UHD", not HDR. Can someone confirm if it will definitely be in an HDR format?
Thank you for posting your questions here in the Xfinity Forum. 4K UHD and 4K UHD/HDR viewing is currently available to Xfinity X1 customers.
**Note**: 4K UHD/HDR content for live events is available if you have an XG1v4 or Xi6 TV Box set to 2160 resolution with a compatible 4K UHD/HDR TV and a 4K-capable HDMI cord. Please see more about using the X1 guide to adjust your video display to 2160p.

I am an Xfinity cable subscriber with a new 4k X1 box to which I just upgraded in January. I have the X1 configured to "Device Settings>Video Display>Video Output Resolution: 16:9, 2160p60 4k UHD (Best Available)" and theX1 is connected to our 4k LG OLED TV. Your webpage, https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/uhd-4k-faqs, notes, "We'll be airing Super Bowl LIV in 4K UHD from FOX." My question is, to which FOX" channel on my Xfinity X1 box should I tune to see the Super Bowl in 4k UHD, e.g. the local Fox broadcast affiliate here in Seattle (Q13 - channel 113 on my X1 box), or one of the FOX Sports Channels (FS1HD - channel 620 on my X1 box), or some 4k-specific channel? Thanks in advance.
None of your choices! The 4K signal is only being carried (IPV). That is Streaming video over broadband Internet. Read the earlier directions in this forum subject to watch the game in 4K.

Quick point of clarification: this is not being delivered over the Internet, rather it is a live On Demand Stream that is being carried over our cable infrastructure.
To watch the game, you can use your X1 Voice Remote to say "4K" or search "4K" from the main Xfinity Menu - you'll reach a landing page where you can easily click to start watching... enjoy!
