How to watch the Agents of SHIELD season 7 finale online from anywhere

Seven years after its premiere, Agents of SHIELD has one final mission to complete. After a slow start, it's grown into one of the best-loved Marvel shows of all-time, and it will be sorely missed by many. It's a pretty momentous television event for fans of comic book shows and the Marvel Cinematic Universe in particular, and here's how to watch the two-hour special Agents of SHIELD season 7 finale online and stream the Marvel show from anywhere in the world.

Spoiler alert: if you're not fully up-to-date with Agents of SHIELD - so having finished season 6 - you may find some unwanted surprises below. Please bear this in mind and scroll down for specific guides to watching Agents of SHIELD online.

Fitz, where (and when) in the universe are you? The fates of SHIELD and Earth are hanging in the balance, and we could really do with a hero right now.

His whereabouts have been kept a mystery throughout season 7, which can surely only mean one thing. Those disgraceful Chronicoms may be on top, but they haven't completed the job yet. 

The team's going to need some serious help to regain some footing against the aliens, so a guest appearance from a familiar face or two wouldn't exactly go amiss. 

There's also the small matter of a love story or two to wrap up.

Agents of SHIELD's two-hour finale is actually two episodes: The End is at Hand, and What We’re Fighting For. We've been picking up some Avengers: Endgame vibes throughout season 7, and it feels like something spectacular is in store for episodes 712 and 713 of the series.

So let's cut to the chase - here's how to watch the Agents of SHIELD finale online and stream every episode of season 7 no matter where you are right now.

How to watch Agents of SHIELD online from outside your country

Those of you who already have a streaming service you use to watch Marvel's Agents of SHIELD season 7 online may find yourself unable to access it when abroad, due to pesky geo-blocking restrictions. Yes, we're aware that most of us aren't going anywhere in the near future, but global travel will one day resume, and you may even be stuck abroad during these difficult times.

Fortunately, there's an easy solution to geo-blocking. Downloading a VPN will allow you to watch all your favorite shows no matter where you are. This simple bit of software changes your IP address so that you can access episodes live or on demand just as you would at home.
