NBC Universal isn’t wasting any time taking its recently concluded Sci Fi Channel hit Battlestar Galatica to the next level in home video.

The company plans to release the show’s final season on DVD July 28, as well the entire series in a new compilation set — plus the series will be made available in the high-def Blu-ray format for the first time.

The final season, “4.5″ — essentially the last run of episodes from earlier this year — includes 13 hours of extras such as three extended episodes that never aired on television, behind-the-scenes featurettes and audio commentaries by producers Ronald D. Moore and David Eick.

All four seasons will be available in both formats, with 20 discs for the Blu-ray version and 25 for standard DVD.
