- Godzilla X Kong was released on March 29, 2024.
- It could be released digitally for rent and purchase by May 2024 as per the previous release schedule of Warner Bros movies.
- Godzilla X Kong could be released for streaming on HBO Max by May 2024 which might get delayed up to June 2024 as well.
Godzilla X Kong is by far the greatest feat of the Monsterverse amassing a debut collection of $80 million making it to the top debut collections in 2024 by far. This movie is an excellent embodiment of top-notch VFX paired with a rather interesting storyline and some breathtaking action sequences which gave the audience the best experience while watching this movie in IMAX. However, if you missed the opportunity to witness the pinnacle of VFX in theaters, do not worry because Godzilla X Kong might get an OTT and digital release date soon after its theatrical release.
When is Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire Releasing on Digital?
Let’s look at the track of how Warner Bros. brought their previous releases on Digital. We will find a pattern in the duration of each release having a gap of 30-60 days from their theatrical release and being made available on digital to purchase or rent. Here are some examples of the same
Movie Title Theatrical Release Date Digital Release Date Gap Between the Releases Shazam! Fury of The Gods March 17, 2023 April 7, 2023 21 days The Flash June 16, 2023 July 18, 2023 33 days Barbie July 21, 2023 September 12, 2023 53 days Blue Beetle August 18, 2023 September 26, 2023 39 days
So, if you notice, the movies that did fairly well at the Box Office arrived much later on digital with a gap of 35-60 Days. However, the movies that did not do so well, arrived in a span of 30 days like Shazam! Fury of The Gods. So, going by this very statistic, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire can get a digital release date sometime in May 2024 after a gap of 35-60 days.
When is Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire Releasing on OTT?
Now, if you do not want to rent or buy Gozilla X Kong, you will have to wait a bit longer for the movie to arrive on OTT platforms. Movies from Warner Bros. arrive first on Max before moving on to other streaming platforms. Now the question is how long is it going to take for it to arrive on OTT. Just like digital, this also has a pattern to it. Movies by Warner Bros. take at least 91 days to arrive on HBO Max after being released. Here are some examples of the same-
Movie Title Theatrical Release Date OTT Release Date Gap Between the Releases Shazam! Fury of The Gods March 17, 2023 May 23, 2023 67 Days The Flash June 16, 2023 August 25, 2023 70 days Barbie July 21, 2023 December 15, 2023 147 days Blue Beetle August 18, 2023 November 17, 2023 91 days
Again, just like digital releases, movies that perform moderately at the Box Office take much less time to arrive on OTT but the movies that perform well, stay on screens for longer and hence take much longer to arrive on streaming platforms taking a minimum of 90-100 days. So, going by that, we can expect Godzilla X Kong’s OTT Release period to be sometime in May. However, it can even extend to June if the movie keeps bringing in a good collection at the theaters for longer.
