The highly anticipated Blu-ray release of “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” is set for February 18. Fans can look forward to three physical editions available for preorder. The premium steelbook edition features 4K and 1080p Blu-ray discs and a digital version voucher. A standard 4K Blu-ray option is available starting at $28, while the 1080p Blu-ray edition begins at just $23, both including a digital copy.
This new anime film, released in theaters on December 13, struggled to achieve box office success, earning less than $10 million, prompting its quick transition to digital platforms just two weeks later. Reactions from fans and critics have been mixed, reflected in its Metascore average.
All physical editions of “The War of the Rohirrim” will include exclusive featurettes, such as “Return to Helm’s Deep: History Becomes Legend,” “Middle-earth & Anime: A Marriage of Creativity,” and “Hera: A New Hero for Middle-earth.”
Additionally, details about the Limited Edition Steelbook reveal its stunning character art featuring Helm Hammerhand and Hera, along with a map of Rohan inside the case. For collectors, the 4K and Blu-ray records are high-quality editions that will offer great value as they come with a preorder price guarantee, ensuring the lowest price before release.
For those looking to dive deeper into Middle-earth before or after the film, the 2024 hardcover Collector’s Editions of “The Lord of the Rings,” “The Hobbit,” and “The Silmarillion” are currently discounted and feature exquisite designs with foil-stamped covers, stained edges, and beautiful illustrations.
In related news, Walmart has recently restocked the exclusive steelbook edition of “The Fellowship of the Ring,” marking a welcome return for fans of the franchise. Additionally, a spectacular 5,471-piece Barad-dur Lego set has launched, bringing Sauron’s iconic fortress to life for collectors and fans alike. This set is just a part of the ongoing interest in new Lord of the Rings merchandise that fans are sure to enjoy.
