‘Heated Rivalry’ Sets Collector’s Edition Blu-ray Release With Steamy Posters, Collectible Art Cards and Special Features
A collector's edition Blu-ray, DVD and 4K release of "Heated Rivalry" Season One was announced, giving fans of the hit hockey romance series a physical copy to pre-order ahead of a planned April 2027 ship date. The show became a surprise word-of-mouth hit after debuting on HBO Max last November, and the release taps into that momentum, though full details of the special features and packaging artwork have yet to be revealed.
The series, produced by Canada's Crave and based on Rachel Reid's "Game Changers" book series, follows secretly involved hockey stars Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov. The 4K/Blu-ray edition is already listed for pre-order at $67.99, and its release is expected to follow closely after Season Two, also slated for April 2027. Separately, the next "Game Changers" novel, "Unrivalled," has been pushed back from September 2026 to June 2027 as author Rachel Reid manages worsening Parkinson's symptoms alongside a busier schedule driven by the show's success.
