The anime world has been captivated by *Solo Leveling*, which has surpassed *One Piece* to become the most reviewed anime on Crunchyroll and secured 13 nominations for the 2025 Anime Awards. Nearly a year after its debut, Crunchyroll has announced a significant physical release for North American fans. Both a standard and a limited edition Blu-ray of *Solo Leveling* Season 1 are now available for preorder, set to release on July 22.
Each edition includes all 12 episodes of the first season along with a variety of special features. However, the limited edition steelbook goes a step further by including exclusive *Solo Leveling* merchandise. Although the limited edition is priced at nearly $30 more than the standard Blu-ray, current discounts at the Crunchyroll Store bring the prices to a similar level.

*Solo Leveling* follows the journey of Sung Jinwoo as he scales through a "System" that selects him as its only player. The first season, which aired in early 2024, consists of 12 episodes covering approximately 45 chapters of the original manhwa. The second season concluded in March, further boosting the anime's popularity.
Amazon lists the preorder for *Solo Leveling* Season 1 at the full price of $90, but the Crunchyroll Store offers an exclusive 25% discount, reducing the limited edition Blu-ray to $67.49. This makes it even cheaper than the standard version, which is currently listed on Amazon for $69.99. Both editions are expected to ship on July 22.

**From IGN's Solo Leveling Season 1 Review:**
"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."
