Tim Burton's 'Corpse Bride' is being released on 4K Blu-ray for the first time, marking its 20th anniversary. The release includes a Limited Edition Steelbook, available for preorder at $30, down from its original price of $35. The Steelbook edition, which features a collectible case and decorative sleeve, has been highly anticipated, selling out initially in July.

The release of 'Corpse Bride' in a Limited Edition Steelbook format highlights the enduring popularity of Tim Burton's work. This anniversary edition not only caters to collectors and fans of Burton's unique style but also introduces the film to a new generation. The discounted preorder price may drive sales and increase interest in physical media, which has seen a decline in recent years due to digital streaming. Additionally, the release of multiple Burton films in high-definition formats underscores the continued demand for classic films in modern viewing formats.
