Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 1 Adds a 4K UHD Blu-ray SteelBook Option

Back in December, CBS Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment announced that the first season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds would be available to own in Blu-ray, DVD, and limited edition Blu-ray SteelBook editions on March 21st. You’ll notice that a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray edtion wasn’t among these options, which is perplexing because it’s streaming on Paramount+ in 4K. Naturally, that didn’t sit well with Trek fans who were loving this show, but the good news is that the 4K-shaped hole in the lineup will be filled on May 16th, and it will come wrapped in a fancy SteelBook of its own. 

You can pre-order the 4K edition of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season 1 here on Amazon for $58.99, and a pre-order discount is likely. Amazon will automatically apply the biggest discount to your pre-order, so you’ll be covered there. Note that the Blu-ray and DVD editions have 12% discounts at the time of writing.
