HBO’s ‘Game of Thrones’ headed for Blu-ray and DVD

The much acclaimed HBO series Game of Thrones is headed for Blu-ray Disc and DVD on March 6, 2012 — a month before Season 2 starts in April. The 5-disc sets (both BD and DVD) will contain all 10 episodes of Season 1, along with plenty of extras such as character profiles, interviews, production featurettes, and never-before-scene footage. (See below for all bonus features.) The LA Times says Game of Thrones is “tantalizing.” The Boston Globe calls it an “HBO Triumph.” You can believe all the hype or check out an episode yourself on HBO or HBO GO before the discs release (view schedule).
