Steelbook is lame but wow love the normal UHD cover! And let me guess, the 3D disc (wherever it is) is blue?

Steelbook's inner art is a bit of a spoiler lol, but it looks great. Probably going with that.

*Sigh*

We're going to have to rely on a specialty Steelbook vendor if we want a good looking Steelbook for this, aren't we?

Join an immersive virtual universe when READY PLAYER ONE arrives on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD and Digital HD.

From Warner Bros. Pictures, Amblin Entertainment and Village Roadshow Pictures, along with filmmaker Steven Spielberg, comes the action adventure READY PLAYER ONE, based on Ernest Cline's bestseller of the same name, which has become a worldwide phenomenon.

In the year 2045, the real world is a harsh place. The only time Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) truly feels alive is when he escapes to the OASIS, an immersive virtual universe where most of humanity spend their days. In the OASIS, you can go anywhere, do anything, be anyone - the only limits are your own imagination. The OASIS was created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance), who left his immense fortune and total control of the OASIS to the winner of a three-part contest he designed to find a worthy heir. When Wade conquers the first challenge of the reality-bending treasure hunt, he and his friends - known as the High Five - are hurled into a fantastical universe of discovery and danger to save the OASIS and their world.

4k HDR + 3D Blu?

Thank you, Steven. Now go kick Disney in the balls and get that glorious 3D version of The BFG out in 3D home media Stateside or at least the Mother Country. Man, that was something else.

[SteelbookCat]

i might buy this but is 4k around to stay or will it turn into hd-dvd?

[alull]

4K/3D combo !!!

"Also, the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray and Blu-ray 3D discs of READY PLAYER ONE will feature a Dolby Atmos® soundtrack remixed specifically for the home theater environment "

Doesn't Warners ALWAYS state this, but it isn't the fact - the merging of 3D with Atmos sound is a dime a dozen.

If you look into the press release above, I have removed the 3D note.

Done with that lazy lie from the marketing team. It only confuses people.

[Creed]

Are we getting 4K + 3D, or just 4K + Blu-ray?

PR states the former, but the cover states the latter.

[Chaotic]

3D is getting its own release.

I like how WB color codes the HDR stickers to match the cover.

Some weak steel books & proof why they’re pointless pieces of tin. Anyway glad to finally have a release & funny it’s the day after Infinity War is announced? Was gonna wait till that release to finally buy a 4K set up but 3 weeks sooner isn’t a big deal.
