Solo Leveling has captivated anime fans worldwide, surpassing One Piece in reviews on Crunchyroll and earning 13 nominations for the 2025 Anime Awards. Nearly a year after its debut season, Crunchyroll has announced a significant physical release for North American fans. Both standard and limited edition Blu-ray sets of Solo Leveling Season 1 are now available for preorder, set to release on July 22.
Each edition includes all 12 episodes from the first season, along with a variety of special features. The limited edition steelbook, however, comes with exclusive Solo Leveling merchandise. Although priced at nearly $30 more than the standard Blu-ray, special discounts at the Crunchyroll Store level the playing field, making both editions comparably priced.

"The first season of Solo Leveling brings gaming mechanics to animation, with a thrilling power fantasy that understands the tediousness of experience farming, the fun of gaining a new level and skill points, and the thrills of facing down a boss."
