Sonic the Hedgehog 3 dashes onto 4K Blu-ray tomorrow, April 15, with two different steelbook case designs. Ahead of its release, Amazon has restocked its exclusive Shadow the Hedgehog Limited Edition Steelbook on 4K Blu-ray. The Shadow-themed steelbook has been hard to find since preorders opened. If you'd rather have a case featuring the Blue Blur, Amazon and Walmart are offering a nice discount on the Sonic the Hedgehog Steelbook, dropping the price to $35.69 (was $45).

To complete your Sonic movie steelbook collection, you can buy Sonic the Hedgehog Bonus Stage Steelbook Edition for $30.46 and Sonic 2's Steelbook Edition for $18.45 (was $29).

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Limited Edition Steelbook (4K Blu-ray)

$35.69 (was $45) | Releases April 15

Sonic the Hedgehog 3's first Limited Edition Steelbook features the Blue Blur doing what he does best. This edition comes with 4K Blu-ray, standard 1080p Blu-ray, and digital versions of Sonic 3. You also get a bunch of bonus featurettes.

Preorders for the Sonic variant of the Limited Edition Steelbook are available at Amazon and Walmart for $35.69 (was $45). This is the first preorder discount for Sonic 3.

Amazon and Walmart both offer preorder price guarantees. You won't be charged until your order ships, and you will only pay the lowest price offered between the time you preorder and release.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Limited Edition Shadow Steelbook (4K Blu-ray)

$45 | Releases April 15, Amazon Exclusive

Sonic 3's Limited Edition Steelbook featuring Shadow is exclusive to Amazon and available to preorder for $45. Unsurprisingly, this edition has been harder to find in stock than the Sonic variant. Amazon sold out of its first batch of preorders fast when preorders opened in January. The Shadow Steelbook was unavailable for nearly all of February and March, but it's back in stock as of April 14.

The Shadow variant complements the Sonic edition by offering the same art design, just with red streaks instead of blue.

Like the Sonic variant, the Shadow version costs $45 and comes with 4K Blu-ray, standard 1080p Blu-ray, and digital versions of Sonic 3. You'll also get the same bonus features. The only difference between the two releases is the steelbook.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Standard Edition (4K Blu-ray)

$36 | Releases April 15

If you don't have any interest in steelbook cases, the 4K release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is up for preorder for $36 at Amazon and Walmart. Amazon preorders for the standard 4K edition should reopen soon.

Preorders for the DVD release are available for $21 at Amazon. Sonic 3 won't receive a standalone 1080p Blu-ray edition, at least not at launch. As such, even if you don't have a 4K media player, you'll still need to get the 4K edition to watch Sonic 3 on standard Blu-ray.

Alternatively, you can rent or buy Sonic 3 from Prime Video or stream it on Paramount+.
