Solo Leveling has captivated fans worldwide, surpassing even One Piece in reviews on Crunchyroll and securing 13 nominations for the 2025 Anime Awards. Nearly a year after its debut, Crunchyroll has announced a highly anticipated physical release for North American fans.

Both editions contain all 12 episodes of the first season along with a variety of special features. However, the limited edition steelbook offers additional Solo Leveling merchandise. Priced at nearly $30 more than the standard edition, the limited edition becomes comparably priced thanks to discounts available at the Crunchyroll Store.
