Solo Leveling has captivated the anime community, surpassing One Piece in reviews on Crunchyroll and earning 13 nominations for the 2025 Anime Awards. Nearly a year after its debut season aired, 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. The limited edition steelbook, however, comes with additional Solo Leveling merchandise. Although the limited edition is priced almost $30 higher than the standard Blu-ray, current discounts at the Crunchyroll Store bring the costs nearly to parity.

Solo Leveling follows Sung Jinwoo's journey through a "System" that uniquely empowers him. The first season, which aired in early 2024, comprised 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 Solo Leveling Season 1 Blu-ray at full price, $90, but the Crunchyroll Store offers an exclusive 25% discount, reducing the limited edition to $69.49. This makes it even cheaper than the standard edition, which is currently listed on Amazon for $69.99. Both editions are slated to ship on July 22.
