Yes, Alita: Battle Angel Is Putting Together Collector’s DVDs That Should Make Fans Really Happy
It’s no secret that Alita: Battle Angel had an interesting run at the box office, but has inspired a loyal fanbase who is still out there hoping for a sequel to the film. While we don’t have news of that ilk just yet, the movie is finally making its way onto Blu-ray, DVD and Digital in July and for fans who really loved the movie, the studio is going all out with the home entertainment sets.
In addition to the regular releases of Alita: Battle Angel, a bunch of different sets will be available to up the ante for those fans who really loved the film. The major set that was recently announced can be found for pre-order on Amazon and will be a gigantic collection with a 3D Blu-ray, a 4K copy, and a Blu-ray and Digital code, meaning it should literally meet any movie need you might have.
The official Collector’s Set also comes with a bunch of additional extras. If you really liked the film enough for it to adorn your walls, concept art will be included, as well as a 64-page book. Lots of cool stuff, if you really enjoyed Alita.
That, of course, will also not be the cheapest of the options. It is currently running at $199.99, which is quite a bit of money to spend on a movie set, unless you’re a superfan. But just look at what you’ll get!
Luckily, if you’re just hoping for a little something special with your copy of Alita: Battle Angel, there are options. For example, the Target-specific Blu-ray for Alita: Battle Angel will come with a cool wristband, which you can see below.
In addition, Walmart has another gift set available and Best Buy is doing a pretty cool Steelbook release, which is both outside the norm and will be much lighter on your wallet. It also includes the 4K look at the film, if you have that capacity on your home TV.
So, there is honestly lots to choose from. The only thing I can’t help you with is the fact none of these sets will be available until July 23, although you can pre-order many of them now. It’s actually quite a while for fans to still be waiting, as the movie officially hit theaters way back in February. The Digital release is just around the corner, however, and is expected to be available starting on July 9.

Luckily, it looks as if the wait should be worth it, particularly for major fans of the film. And solid sales can only mean positive things for the future of the franchise – or I guess theoretical franchise at this point – as well. Particularly given that Robert Rodriguez would be happy to make a sequel to the movie, should the opportunity arise.
