Pixar's latest feature film might have debuted on the Disney+ streaming service, but that doesn't mean the movie isn't getting a physical home release. On Tuesday, Disney and Pixar announced that Soul is set to be released on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD. This means that folks can grab a copy of the movie at home, or have the ability to purchase it digitally without a Disney+ subscription.

Soul will be released in all home formats on March 23rd. Films usually arrive on digital before the release date of the physical Blu-ray, but Soul has been streaming on Disney+ since Christmas.

In addition to the release date, Disney revealed all of the special features that will be added to the home release of Soul.
