HBO has announced that the second season of “Game of Thrones” is scheduled to hit DVD and Blu-ray on February 19th 2013, a little over a month before the premiere of the third season.
The first season disc release earlier this year remains the best-selling television title for 2012, and was the fastest selling TV on Blu-ray title of all time. It’s expected this release will break that second record.
