Resident Evil Infects Home Video For A New 6-Film 4K UHD SteelBook Set November 21st
Posted Sep 25, 2023 at 06:45 AM PDT by Matthew Hartman
You can't keep a franchise in the Home Video grave for long. Resident Evil returns for a new 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray 6-Film SteelBook!
While fans of the franchise have been clamoring for single-title releases of the long-running Paul W.S. Anderson-helmed franchise, Sony Home Entertainment decided to go the 6-Film Collection SteelBook Dolby Vision upgrade route one last time. Since all of the films look like they're coming in packed with the same set of extras and Atmos audio tracks, the only apparent benefit would be Dolby Vision HDR over the previous HDR10 masters. Which if that's the case that's fine, but might not be enough to get folks to redip over the previous 4K Ultra HD Collection from 2020

The set isn't up for pre-order yet, and we don't have a price point, when that info comes in we'll update our listing ASAP.
Here's the full specs from the press release:
