Fox won't be pulling any punches with its first-ever TV-on-Blu-ray release, with confirmed specs for 'Prison Break: Season One' including hours of bonus features.

As we've previously reported, the studio first announced a next-gen release for 'Prison Break' this past August, promising a well-stocked package that would rival any of its A-list theatrical Blu-ray titles. With full specs now confirmed, the highly-anticpated box set certainly looks like it will live up to fan expectations.

Order 'Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows'

Coming to Blu-ray June 12th

Spread across six BD-50 dual-layer discs, all 22 first-season episodes will be presented in 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video, and DTS-HD Lossless Master Audio 5.1 Surround (at 48kHz/24-bit).

Extras are set to include audio commentaries with cast and crew on nine episodes, multiple deleted scenes, two making-of featurettes, a Fox "Anatomy of a Scene" TV special, and a collection of six promo spots. (There are no announced Blu-ray exclusives at this time.)

Fox has set a retail price of $99.98.
