“Vikings” Season 5 Volume 2 Releasing on Blu-ray and DVD This October!

Fans of the Vikings TV series will soon be able to own the fifth season (volume 2) when it debuts on Blu-ray and DVD come October 8, 2019. From Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, the Vikings Season 5 Volume 2 home release includes lots of extra content for fans to enjoy.

Titled Vikings: Season 5 Volume 2, the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release is a great way for people to binge-watch the most recent episodes before the season six premiere later this year. The extra features include extended and unrated episodes, deleted scenes, and (my favorite additional content) audio commentary with series creator Michael Hirst and Vikings star Gustaf Skarsgard.

Here’s the official description:

As the explosive second half of Vikings Season Five begins, Ivar the Boneless’ tyrannical reign as king of Kattegat ushers in a new Dark Age for Scandinavia. And while Bjorn and Lagertha flee Ivar’s murderous forces with Bishop Heahmund, Duke Rollo’s return brings even more upheaval. Meanwhile, Floki battles the elements-as well as his settlers’ thirst for revenge-in beautiful, desolate Iceland. Ultimately, the sons of Ragnar and old sworn enemies must become allies to challenge the despot Ivar, who has declared himself a god. The gut-wrenching action and dramatic plot twists reach a fever pitch as the season unfolds.

Vikings is an international Irish/Canadian co-production by World 2000 and Take 5 Productions. HISTORY broadcasts the series domestically in the U.S. MGM Television brought the series to the network and brings the series to the global audience, serving as the worldwide distributor outside of Ireland and Canada. Vikings is produced in association with Corus Entertainment.
