Adventure Time Is Finally Getting the Full Blu-ray Treatment
The full Adventure Time Blu-ray set is now up for preorder with a release date of October 20, and the best deal is getting it directly through Gruv.
After a decade-long absence from Blu-ray, the beloved animated series Adventure Time is finally making its full debut on the premium disc format. Originally airing from 2010 to 2018, the critically acclaimed show quickly gained a massive following and became one of the most revered cartoons in history. Despite all individual seasons being released on Blu-ray individually, the complete series has only been available in standard DVD format in North America until now.
The eagerly awaited Adventure Time Blu-ray set will be available for preorder with a release date of October 20. The best deal on the new set is currently offered through Gruv, priced at $74.99, compared to $89.99 on Amazon and $74.96 at Walmart. The cheaper price on Gruv is likely due to it being the direct storefront for Warner Bros., the parent company of Cartoon Network.
While the Amazon listing doesn't showcase the product, Walmart and Gruv listings suggest the new release will maintain the same green packaging as the existing DVD release, with the Blu-ray logo added to the side. IGN's review of the Season 1 Blu-ray years ago praised the conversion to Blu-ray as impeccable, and it's expected that the new set will match that high-quality presentation.
The new Adventure Time Blu-ray set will include all 10 seasons, totaling 283 episodes, condensed onto 12 discs instead of the standard DVD's 22. It will also come with the same assortment of bonus features, such as a retrospective documentary with the cast and crew, a documentary on the music of Adventure Time, live performances, audio commentaries, and more. This impressive collection has earned consistent praise from the reviewer, who gave the show's final episode a perfect 10/10.
Despite Adventure Time concluding its original run in 2018, the series continues to receive love and support from fans and creators alike. Spin-off series Fionna and Cake aired for two seasons on HBO Max, while Adventure Time: Side Quests recently premiered on Hulu and Disney+. Additionally, an Adventure Time movie is currently in development at Cartoon Network.
