Star Wars: The Force Awakens is coming home soon. Disney chief Bob Iger confirmed release dates for the digital and disc-based versions Thursday during a shareholders call for Disney.

April 1 (no fooling) will see the digital release of The Force Awakens, with Blu-ray and DVD following on April 5, 2016. Many releases have been seeing digital release a week or even two ahead of the physical copy, so this is a notable turn against that idea, with digital being just a weekend ahead of Blu-ray.

There weren't any other new details about the home release offered during the call, but a Lucasfilm representative has teased on twitter that more official information is coming soon. Thanks to early retail listings, we've already seen details including the BB-8 cover art, a table read, and deleted scenes coming in the release.
