The anime phenomenon *Solo Leveling* has surged to the forefront of the anime community, surpassing even *One Piece* in the number of reviews on Crunchyroll. With an impressive 13 nominations at the upcoming 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, the series has solidified its place in the hearts of fans. Almost a year after its debut, Crunchyroll has announced a comprehensive physical release for North American viewers. Preorders are now open for both the standard and limited edition Blu-rays of *Solo Leveling* Season 1, with a release date set for July 22.
Both editions boast all 12 episodes from the first season along with a variety of special features. The limited edition steelbook, however, comes with exclusive *Solo Leveling* merchandise, making it a must-have for avid collectors. Priced at nearly $30 more than the standard Blu-ray, savvy shoppers can find it at a comparable price thanks to discounts at the Crunchyroll Store.
