Preorders for the It: Welcome to Derry Limited Edition Steelbook sold out within an hour at Amazon, but you can still secure a copy for $40 at Gruv. We also expect Walmart to open preorders soon. If you&#8217;re a Stephen King fan, it&#8217;d probably be wise to preorder ASAP. Steelbook Editions of the two-part It film adaptation sold out fast, and Welcome to Derry is the first TV series based on a Stephen King novel to get a 4K Blu-ray edition. At this time, the Limited Edition Steelbook is the only way to get the series on 4K Blu-ray.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to Derry: Season 1 is available to stream in full on HBO Max. Alternatively, you can buy Season 1 on other streaming platforms like Amazon Prime Video for $22.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to Derry holds an 80% on Rotten Tomatoes, and I think many longtime fans of King&#8217;s legendary horror novel would say Season 1 was pretty great. HBO has yet to renew the series for a second season, but director Andy Muschietti has a three-season arc in mind. Season 1 tells the story of Pennywise&#8217;s reign of terror in 1962. Season 2 would rewind the clock 27 years to Pennywise&#8217;s previous feeding cycle in 1935, and Season 3 would be set in 1908.<\/p>\n<div title=\"[Stephen King] It: Welcome to Derry Steelbook Edition\" data-embed-type=\"buylink\" data-ref-id=\"5264\" data-template=\"4\" data-size=\"buylink__listicle\" data-title=\"[Stephen King] It: Welcome to Derry Steelbook Edition\" data-collection=\"\" class=\"norewrite\">\n<div class=\"buylink-container\">\n<div class=\"js-buylink-item-container buylink-item-container\">\n<h3 class=\"item-deck\">                      $40 | Releases May 5, 2026         <\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-container\">                                  <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"main-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/square_medium\/1595\/15950357\/4622945-itwelcometoderry.png\"\/>                                                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"item-description\">\n<p>The four-disc set includes all eight episodes from Season 1 of Welcome to Derry on 4K Blu-ray. The front cover of the steelbook case features Bill Skarsg\u00e5rd&#8217;s terrifying Pennywise smiling menacingly with a signature red balloon obscuring half of his face. The back cover shows the Losers&#8217; Club at the entrance to the sewers, and the interior artwork features the kids in the sewers beneath Derry.<\/p>\n<p>Inside the steelbook case, you&#8217;ll find six art cards with 1960s-style promotional artwork for the town of Derry. The art cards make Derry look like a great place to raise a family!<\/p>\n<p>Season 1&#8217;s eight episodes have a total runtime of 5 hours and 51 minutes, but the physical edition release also comes with roughly 2.5 hours of bonus features:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Inside Derry &#8211; 3 behind-the-episode featurettes<\/li>\n<li>Fear the Other &#8211; Featurette that examines social issues impacting Derry in 1962, including Jim Crow, the Red Scare, and the government trespassing on indigenous lands.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Optional English subtitles as well as American Sign Language will be available in the settings. Technical specs haven&#8217;t been revealed, but we&#8217;d expect the 4K Blu-ray edition to support Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"js-buylink-item-container buylink-item-container\">\n<h3 class=\"item-deck\">                      $35 | Releases May 5, 2026         <\/h3>\n<div class=\"image-container\">                                  <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"main-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gamespot.com\/a\/uploads\/square_medium\/1595\/15950357\/4622963-itwelcometoderryblu-ray.png\"\/>                                                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"item-description\">\n<p>The first season of Welcome to Derry will also launch on 1080p Blu-ray and DVD on the same day.
