With Season 2 of Arcane right around the corner in November, there's no better time to give its incredible first season a rewatch. Better yet, you can now add it to your 4K collection courtesy of GKIDS.
The limited edition 4K steelbook for the first season is officially up for preorder (see it here at Amazon) with a release date of October 8. It's also on sale right now for $45.99, 23% off its list price, which is even more exciting.
This is a show that's worth every penny to invest in physically, in my opinion. It'll look absolutely stunning on your TV in 4K quality as well, so get your preorders in now to kick off your rewatch in the lead-up to season 2.

In case you need any more convincing before buying this, it's worth looking at our Arcane Season 1 review where we hailed the series as a "Masterpiece" with a solid 10/10 score. Our reviewer Rafael Motamayor stated, "Arcane delivers a killing blow to the idea that video games cannot be masterfully adapted into other mediums, with compelling characters, an endearing story, and fascinating lore and worldbuilding, as well as striking visuals that break new ground for what is possible in TV animation."
