Greetings, programs!

We have some great 4K Ultra HD catalog release news for you this morning that I know many of you have been waiting for, and this comes straight from the game grid at D23.

So here’s the official Disney press release with all the preliminary details...

THE DIGITAL UNIVERSE REAWAKENS ON 4K ULTRA HD!

TRON and TRON: Legacy Getting 4K Release September 16

BURBANK, Calif. (September 2, 2025) – Disney’s groundbreaking sci-fi adventures, TRON and TRON: Legacy, will debut on 4K Ultra HD for the first time on September 16. [Read on here...]

TRON was digitally scanned and carefully restored by The Walt Disney Film Restoration team, who corrected dirt, warping, and other imperfections to ensure pristine image quality. The work was supervised by director Steven Lisberger. TRON: Legacy has been remastered in High Dynamic Range from the original digital sources under the supervision of director Joseph Kosinski. Meticulously remastered, both films transport audiences back to the digital frontier with an experience more immersive, dynamic, and visually spectacular than ever before.

Available on digital platforms including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home, the releases showcase breathtaking Dolby Vision picture quality and pulse-pounding Dolby Atmos audio for the ultimate home-viewing experience.

Originally released in 1982, TRON opened the gateway to a bold new universe of computer-generated wonder, inspiring a generation with its visionary storytelling and pioneering special effects. Nearly three decades later, TRON: Legacy expanded the saga with breathtaking visuals, a cutting-edge digital world, and a celebrated electronic score from Daft Punk.

TRON and TRON: Legacy will be available to own on 4K Ultra HD Digital and Blu-ray, beginning September 16. TRON: Ares, which Fandango recently ranked as the most highly anticipated film of the Fall, will carry the franchise’s groundbreaking legacy forward when it debuts exclusively in theaters October 10.

Along with previously released bonus extras, the TRON and TRON: Legacy 4K discs will generate an eye-popping collectible limited edition SteelBook with custom artwork and packaging.

Here’s what they'll look like... [Editor’s Note: Amazon pre-orders are now live here for TRON and here for TRON: Legacy.]
