Resident Evil: Death Island Blu-Ray Preorders Are Live, Including A Steelbook Edition
Resident Evil's next CG animated chapter is almost here
Resident Evil: Death Island is set to release on July 25, bringing us a new chapter in Capcom’s long-running horror series in the form of a CG animated movie. The film is set in the same universe as the video games, and sees Leon Kennedy (voiced by Matt Mercer), Claire Redfield (Stephanie Panisello), Chris Redfield (Kevin Dorman), and Jill Valentine (Nicole Tompkins) teaming up to investigate a T-virus outbreak on Alcatraz Island.
Fans eager to check out Resident Evil: Death Island can preorder the movie on Blu-ray in multiple formats, including a special Steelcase edition.
You’ll find links to preorder Resident Evil: Death Island below, but it’s worth noting that the pricing is a bit wonky. For example, Amazon and Barnes & Noble list the steelbook version for $50, while it’s only $35 at Best Buy. Similarly, the DVD version is $24 at Walmart but $31 at Barnes & Noble. We suspect the prices will standardize ahead of the July 25 release date, but we’re unsure which price will ultimately be correct. For that reason, we'd recommend preordering the steelbook or Blu-ray at Best Buy soon if you're interested. Luckily, each retailer offers preorder price guarantees and only charges for preorders when the product ships, so you can secure a copy from your preferred online store now and cancel later if the prices change.
The Resident Evil: Death Island steelbook edition includes the 4K UHD version of the movie on disc, plus a digital download code, in a fancy steelbook case with unique cover art. The steelbook edition is currently the only way to preorder the movie in 4K UHD.
As mentioned above, pricing is inconsistent between retailers. Resident Evil: Death Island Steelbook edition preorders are currently $50 at Amazon and Barnes And Noble, or $35 at Best Buy. We're unaware of any differences between these listings, so we expect the prices to change.
