Star Trek: Prodigy - Season One, Volume One is a Blu-ray release featuring the first ten episodes of the first season of Star Trek: Prodigy.
A four-pack of character art cards, each of which with information on how the USS Protostar crew interacted with Starfleet protocols, was included in the set as a physical bonus.
No separate versions of this specific release were issued in the other regions, which in the case of the Blu-ray release was not that much of an issue as it is in actuality region-free since this has become commonplace for the Blu-ray format – also explaining the for Region A unusual inclusion of the German subtitles and dubbed language audio track.
Summary[]
- Star Trek: Prodigy follows the intergalactic adventures of six teenagers as they try to escape from their cruel past and look to the stars for hope and salvation aboard an abandoned Federation starship. These outcasts know nothing about the ship they have commandeered – a first in the history of Star Trek – but over the course of their adventures together, they are introduced to Starfleet and the ideals it represents. Created by Emmy Award winners Kevin and Dan Hageman (Trollhunters), this 2-disc set includes more than 75 minutes of exclusive Special Features with producers, writers, designers, and actors introducing the Star Trek canon to a new generation of fans.

Background information[]
- This home video release saw a from the fan's perspective unwelcome return of the "market discrimination" phenomenon. North American customers had to await the release of the second half of the season on a separate physical home video format release later that year on 26 September. In stark contrast, it was also announced that the UK and Germany (and thus the EU) could expect a complete season release in both formats on 25 September and 5 October respectively, adding insult to injury to the American fanbase.
- By way of consolation for North American customers, it was concurrently announced that digital purchase of the entire first season was now made possible through the usual array of digital vendors, such as Prime Video, the iTunes Store, and others. [1]
