Several new home video editions of James Cameron’s Avatar and Avatar: The Way of Water will launch later this month. The biggest of the new releases are the new Avatar and Avatar: The Way of Water 4K Collector’s editions, which feature multiple versions of the films plus tons of all-new special features. There are also new steelbook versions and 3D Blu-ray releases as well–and all of them launch on December 19, just in time for a last-minute holiday gift.
Let’s unpack all the upcoming Avatar and Avatar: Way of Water releases and where you can preorder them.
$42-$45
Avatar: The Way of Water 4K Collector’s edition is a four-disc box set that includes the movie in 4K UHD, standard Blu-ray, and digital formats. You also get eight hours of bonus material like behind-the-scenes featurettes, new deleted scenes, and more. The entire set is packaged in a fold-out case featuring unique artwork from the movie.
Avatar: The Way of Water 4K Collector’s Edition will launch on December 19 for $45, but you can preorder it for just $42 at Amazon and Walmart. Preorders are also available for $45 at Best Buy.
For those who don’t want to wait, the standard edition of Avatar: The Way of Water dropped earlier this year and is available now in 4K, Blu-ray, or DVD formats at Amazon.
$45-$50
The original Avatar film is also getting a new Collector’s Edition on December 19. The box set includes the theatrical, special edition, and extended cuts of Avatar in 4K, standard Blu-ray, and digital download formats, plus 10 hours of special features–much of which was not included in any other Avatar home video release. Preorders are available for $45 at Best Buy or $50 at Walmart–though we expect one or both retailers will change their prices to match before release.
$42
Along with the new Collector’s edition, a new Avatar 4K steelbook version is also dropping on December 19, exclusively at Best Buy. The three-disc set includes 4K and standard Blu-ray copies of the film, plus digital download codes. You can preorder the Avatar 4K steelbook version for $42 at Best Buy.
You can also complete the collection with the Avatar: The Way of Water steelbook edition that released earlier this year. It’s available for $39 at Best Buy.
$35
The last of the upcoming Avatar home video releases is a new 3D Blu-ray version of the original Avatar. This three-disc set includes the movie in 3D Blu-ray and standard Blu-ray formats, plus a digital download code. Disc three features three hours of bonus content, including documentaries on the the film’s production and cultural impact. The new Avatar 3D Blu-ray version drops on December 19, but you can preorder it now for $35 at Amazon and Walmart.
It’s worth noting that Avatar: Way of Water is also available in 3D Blu-ray for $32 at Best Buy or $34 at Walmart.
These new Avatar Blu-ray sets aren’t the only big Avatar releases dropping this month. Ubisoft’s new open-world action-adventure game Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora launches for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on December 7, and promises to take players to never-before-seen regions of Pandora.
