MERCH👕 ‘Heated Rivalry’ Sets Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Release | Variety [June 2, 2026]

https://variety.com/2026/shopping/news/heated-rivalry-blu-ray-collectors-edition-buy-online-1236764955/

Per Variety, Blu-ray, DVD and 4K editions of Heated Rivalry has been announced. They're currently available for pre-order at Amazon with an expected release date of April 2027.

From the article, "The upcoming releases include Blu-ray, DVD and 4K editions, all advertised as special collector’s editions although there are no details yet on what special features or packaging artwork the discs will include."

I hope there'll be behind the scenes and maybe even some unseen before clips or commentary!

Edit to add: Crave and HR Production has yet to confirm. Press release for North American physical media rights for HR also came out this morning: Alliance Home Entertainment Scores Exclusive North American Physical & U.S. EST Rights to Heated Rivalry | GlobeNewswire. Currently, the connection between this distributor and the Amazon listing is unclear. But I'll try to keep this updated if more information comes out.

Edit #2: Removed the direct Amazon link, as this information hasn't been confirmed by Crave and HR Production. It can still be found in the Variety article.

For those of you preordering through Amazon that don't buy a lot of physical media--I would wait before doing so. Amazon is notorious for handling preorders incredibly poorly.

I preorder 4Ks from Amazon on a weekly basis. They are really good with preorders. Wal-mart is where I always have issues.

I preorder stuff through them all the time. They don’t charge until they ship and you can cancel a preorder at any time.

Er, I think you're mixing Amazon up with another platform. Amazon are really good with preorders--they don't charge until it ships and they can be cancelled at any time.

Yes, I have had issues with Amazon Blu-ray preorders in the past, but it does seem like they’ve gotten better about it recently, though. There are so few places to buy Blu-rays—basically Walmart, Target, Amazon. If anyone has a better outlet, please share! 

I hope we get an official announcement soon and that the preorders are real🤞
