John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum Digital And Blu-Ray Release Date, Trailer, Details Revealed

John Wick is coming to your home, and he's bringing guns... lots of guns.

The release dates for the home versions of John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum have been announced for all platforms, and the smash hit shoot 'em up will come loaded with special features when it hits the small screen. (via Collider) The flick will be available on Digital on August 23rd, followed by a 4K UHD, Blu-Ray, DVD, and On Demand release on September 10.

The trailer for the home release teases that said features will give us an extensive behind-the-scenes look at the production of this summer's actioner, in which Keanu Reeves returns for a third go-round as the titular hitman, who finds himself on the run with an enormous bounty on his head after being "excommunicated" by his handlers.

Packed as they are with more featurettes than you can shake a silenced pistol at, it's a little curious there is no directors' commentary to be found on any platform. Fans will likely forgive that oversight, though, because really — all of those behind-the-scenes clips will probably fill out a run time comparable to that of the movie itself.

No details on the featurettes were given beyond the titles, but if you've caught the flick in theaters, you'll probably have a pretty good idea of what they have to offer. The trailer shows Reeves explaining that with John Wick: Chapter 3, the filmmakers sought to fill the audience in on "a little more of the backstory" of Wick's dangerous world, and it certainly looks as if the special features were crafted with the same objective in mind. 

One interesting surprise: the special features on all platforms will contain a trailer and making-of featurette for John Wick Hex, a forthcoming strategy/resource management game from British studio Bithell Games. The game will serve as a prequel to the events of the entire movie series; it'll initially only be available to PC and Mac gamers, but the plan is for console ports to arrive soon after the game's release. That release date, unfortunately, has yet to be announced — but the game received a warm reception from industry observers when it was demoed at E3 2019 back in June, with Kotaku's Gita Jackson praising it as being "like being transported inside of the titular assassin's mind."

If you're a Wick fan who missed out on Chapter 3's theatrical run, you'll really want to circle those dates above. The flick is the best-reviewed, highest-grossing (by far) entry in the entire series — and, as Reeves alludes to in the trailer, it's somehow even more jam-packed with brilliant action set pieces than its predecessors. Get ready to soak in all the bone-crunching fisticuffs and crazily choreographed gunplay, and check out the titles of all of those featurettes below.
