NEWS' Worldista Tour coming home

 The next release for NEWS will be the home video release of their WORLDISTA tour from 2019. The release will be on DVD and Blu Ray and in two versions for each, a limited edition and a regular edition. They will be released on October 21st, 2020.

The limited edition comes with premium packaging, a 32-page booklet, VR goggles (to be used with a smartphone) and a VR movie ID. (The VR videos will only be able to be accessed from October 20th, 2020 to December 31st, 2020.)


The regular edition comes with six postcards and the same two DVDs as the limited edition which has the same video of the concert itself.

I am surprised that Johnny's would be releasing something that Tegoshi Yuya is in. So it makes me very curious on how much he is going to be featured in the release. With the regular edition coming with 6 postcards I have the feeling that those will only feature the three remaining members, such as each member getting featured on 2 of the postcards each. It also makes me curious to how the video for the concert was edited. But I guess that will be answered when this gets released next month.

And while the limited edition VR feature seems interesting the fact that there is only about a two month window to actually use it. And of course there is no assurance for overseas fans they will be able to access it. 

Plus side though is that the regular edition is easily the least expensive NEWS concert release in years. 

Either way it is safe to say this is bound to be the final release of NEWS as four members. I look forward to it as the new era for the group can truly begin after this.
