Ahead of this week’s bit Star Trek Universe panel that comes out of San Diego Comic Con @ Home tomorrow, CBS has started the festivities by officially announcing the release of Star Trek: Picard Season 1 on Blu-ray and DVD, coming home to fans on October 6.

Coming in both standard and special Steelbook-packaging releases, the first season of Star Trek: Picard will arrive on Blu-ray in a multi-disc set containing both the ten-episode freshman run of episodes, but a number of special features including behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted scenes, and commentary tracks.

A first look at the special Steelbook release of Picard debuted with today’s announcement as well; unlike the first two Star Trek: Discovery steelbooks, however, the Picard release is not limited to Best Buy exclusivity in the United States, and is available for Amazon preorder now.

As we’ve long speculated, the Star Trek: Picard Season 1 Blu-ray set will also include the Short Trek prequel tale “Children of Mars,” which first debuted on CBS All Access back in January — so for those of you who purchased the Short Treks Blu-ray release earlier this summer, here’s how you’ll be able to complete the collection.

Here’s the full breakdown of included bonus features:
