Japan is gearing up for Godzilla: Resurgence and Toho will be kicking off its promotional campaign next month. In celebration of the 31st Godzilla title, Toho's “Masterpiece” releases of the first 30 films will include new bonus content with new interviews and commentary as well as Godzilla: Resurgence promo stickers, cards, etc. The movies will be available June 15th.
The downside is all of the new releases are limited to DVD with the exception of the 2014 film—Legendary's Godzilla '14 will receive both a DVD and Blu-ray rerelease. Unless western audiences understand Japanese and own a region-free DVD player, the region 2 DVDs will be of little use to North American fans. However, the Godzilla '14 Blu-ray shares the same region code with North America. If fans from across the pond are interested in the Godzilla: Resurgence content, the new Godzilla '14 Blu-ray is the best bang for their buck.
If fans are interested in the releases, and looking over all the new box art, Amazon Japan has a listing for all the titles here: The Masterpiece Edition Godzilla Re-Releases.
The films are available to order June 15th, 2016.
