The final season of Game of Thrones is headed to home video next month and bringing with it a number of special features and deleted scenes, including a sequence in which Sansa Stark and Tyrion Lannister confront White Walkers in the Winterfell crypt. The sequence comes from the third episode of Season Eight, entitled “The Long Night,” which saw the Night King and his army of Wights invade Winterfell for a fatal conflict with an army making a stand against the terrifying threat. You can head to Entertainment Weekly to watch the deleted scene and grab it when Season Eight lands on Blu-ray and DVD on December 3rd.
In addition to Season Eight landing on home video on December 3rd, a complete collection of the entire series will be compiled into one massive set.
HBO will release collectible packaging editions, including the Game of Thrones: The Complete Collection which is packaged in a visually stunning wooden shadow box case, featuring beautiful, multi-layered panel designs by Robert Ball (the artist behind the “Beautiful Death” series) that summarize the Game of Thrones story. Each season is represented by a different layer, showcasing iconic characters and memorable moments from the show, all clambering toward the Iron Throne. The set also contains a “Hand of the King” pin clasp, which holds all nine custom plated disc sleeves. HBO will also release Game of Thrones: Season 8 in a stunning 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Steelbook, and the single-season DVD/Blu-ray. Additionally, Game of Thrones: The Complete Series will also be available on DVD/Blu-ray without the collectible packaging.
