Are you ready to relive one of this year's best films from the comfort of your own couch? Well, it seems you are in luck then! There is still a bit of time left before Detective Pikachu hits shelves, but you can add the film to your digital collection now.

Yes, that's right! The first live-action Pokemon movie is available on digital, and you can nab it at a variety of stores.

Today, Detective Pikachu went live online at a slew of U.S. retailers. You can pick up the movie's Digital HD set from sites like iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Prime, Vudu, and Microsoft to name a few. This digital release comes about two weeks before Detective Pikachu hits DVD and Blu-ray on August 7.

If you are wanting to nab the film outside of the U.S., you will need to wait a bit longer. Europe will get its digital release in release September before its physical copies hit shelves on September 16.

The digital edition of Detective Pikachu comes with several bonus features in case you were worried. The movie will feature behind-the-scenes footage as well as an alternate opening. A special version of the film will also be included which allows fans to explore easter eggs hidden within Detective Pikachu, so fans can take notes like good-old Professor Oak.
