Detective Pikachu Gets New Budget-Priced 4K Steelbook Edition

Pokemon fans can now preorder a new Limited Edition Steelbook of Detective Pikachu on 4K UHD Blu-ray. The charming live-action Pokemon movie received a 4K steelbook edition alongside its initial Blu-ray release in 2019, but that Best Buy-exclusive version is long gone. If you missed out and want to add Detective Pikachu to your collection, you can preorder Detective Pikachu’s Limited Edition Steelbook at Gruv for $28 ahead of its April 29 release.

This version of the film includes 4K, Blu-ray, and digital copies of Detective Pikachu. The big selling point is the steelbook–adorned with Pikachu’s lovable face (complete with his detective’s hat), it’s a fun way to show off your limited edition set. Inside are two discs (4K and Blu-ray), and a digital code lets you download a copy of the film. Note that this must be redeemed before June 30, 2027.

Detective Pikachu earned solid reviews when it hit theaters in 2019, as the live-action spinoff featured a cast of lovable characters, unexpected plot twists, and a roster that moves beyond the original 151 Pokemon.

Here’s a look at the bonus features included with the 4K Blu-ray:

• Alternate opening
• MY Pokemon Adventure
• Creating the World of Detective Pikachu featurettes
• Mr. Mime’s Audio Commentary
• Ryan Reynolds: Outside the Actor’s Studio
• Music Video

Detective Pikachu helped turn the tides for video game adaptations and provided a blueprint for live-action adaptations of other storied franchises. Until The Super Mario Bros. Movie came around, Detective Pikachu was the highest grossing video game adaptation of all time. It currently sits in the third slot, as the recently released Sonic the Hedgehog 3 also passed it up.

version is even more affordable at $5.56. These even come with the same bonus features as the limited edition launching in April–so unless you need the cool collector’s steelbook, you can save a lot of money by opting for these currently available alternatives.

Detective Pikachu played a huge part in changing the perception and expectations for video game adaptations. It also provided a blueprint for live-action adaptations of other storied game franchises with similar cartoonish graphical styles. Until The Super Mario Bros. Movie shattered records in 2023, Detective Pikachu was the highest grossing video game adaptation of all time. It currently sits in the third slot, as the recently released Sonic the Hedgehog 3 also passed it up.

If you like steelbooks, it’s worth noting that Walmart just released a new Limited Edition Steelbook version of the Mario Movie on 4K Blu-ray. Meanwhile, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 arrives on 4K Blu-ray with two steelbooks in April, one with
