I'd love if this release includes the new transfers on the 1080p discs. I can't upgrade my system to 4k yet, but it would still be nice to be able to enjoy the Matrix without the tint in 1080p.
The email announcement I got today stated "Plus, newly remastered Blu-ray".
The trilogy box set looks to not include the slip covers so I am going for the individual releases myself.
I'm so pumped for this release. The Matrix (1999) in 4K has been such an upgrade, and now we just need Animatrix to have the best possible version of all Matrix.
Side note: it bothers me that they used a photo from Reloaded for the Revolutions' Blu-ray cover. Am I the only one?

SYNOPSIS
THE MATRIX TRILOGY
The Complete Matrix Trilogy presents the complete adventures of machine battling truth-seekers Neo (Keanu Reeves), Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) in all three of the Wachowskis ground-breaking monumental sci-fi feature films.
THE MATRIX
Perception: Our day-in, day-out world is real.
Reality: That world is a hoax, an elaborate deception spun by all-powerful machines of artificial intelligence that control us.
Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne lead the fight to free humankind in the see-and-see-again cyberthriller written and directed by the Wachowskis, and winner of four Academy Awards.
THE MATRIX RELOADED
NEO. MORPHEUS. TRINITY.
They’re back for the powerful second chapter of The Matrix trilogy, and exciting new allies join them in the struggle against foes who are cloned, upgraded and closing in on humanity’s last enclave. Back, too, are The Wachowskis and producer Joel Silver, expanding their vision with a spectacle that rocks the senses.
WHAT IS THE MATRIX?
Who created The Matrix? The answers lead to more worlds of bold possibility and to a destiny that passes from revelations to Revolutions.
THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS
THE REVOLUTION IS NOW: The Matrix Revolutions.
NEO. MORPHEUS. TRINITY.
They and other heroes stand on the brink of victory or annihilation in the epic war against the machines in the stunning final chapter of The Matrix trilogy. For Neo, that means going where no human has dared – into the heart of Machine City and into a cataclysmic showdown with the exponentially more powerful renegade program Smith. For The Wachowskis and producer Joel Silver, that means soaring beyond the amazing visual inventiveness of the first two films.

Next year is the 20th anniversary, I expect there will then be a new Ultimate Matrix Collection in 4K with The Animatrix in tow.
I was thinking that something like this ^ might be the case. Makes me wonder if I should just hold off a while...but I don't know if I can hold out! lol

I agree; I mentioned this before and another user mentioned it would be a bit odd if they released a whole new box set a year/few months after this 4k trilogy but I can't picture them not putting out something for the anniversary
And making the 2nd and 3rd films available separately for those of us who purchased the first already.
Again, Bravo!
It just sucks that 2 and 3 individual together they nearly equal the amount of the full trilogy lol but its all good, I'm hoping black friday/cyber monday deals will lower them significantly
I wonder why they didn’t release them all together in the first place
I held off buying the first one as I kinda knew a trilogy set would happen eventually, just didn’t think it would be so soon.
