I'm not sure. But Neil Marshall posted on his Instagram a few weeks ago that he was working on a new 4K transfer.
Neil Marshall in my opinion is a legend. It’s just a massive shame that he doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. I know it seems that Doomsday was what caused his career to flop a bit ( Christ knows why, I thought it was quite good, not great but it was miles better than a lot of crap out there) but his lack of regular work really baffles me. He was due to make a movie about Dracula’s voyage across the sea to London but it’s never happened. I guarantee it would of been good with him behind it.
Fingers crossed someone does a The Descent special edition soon also.

Every copy I ever owned of Dog soldiers was crap including the Digibook 4k transfer (very weak transfer IMO)
I do hope for a Doomsday 4K premium or 4K digibook release I enjoyed that film alot but I am not getting my hopes up...

Exactly the reason I’ve never bought an import of any of Dog Soldiers, I’ve heard the dvd was better than the Blu which is saying something as the dvd quality is awful. Still got it though. Fingers crossed it’s a good un

you got that right. Was so annoyed at the dire state of that 4k german pressing.

Only just recently picked up the German mediabook release, so this will have to be a pretty impressive release for me to double-dip so soon. Hopefully they can at least improve the quality!
 
Get selling that German Mediabook second sight will do a good edition

Who'd buy it?. It's a rubbish pressing. If it had been a good pressing yes but I'm stuck with a lemon. It's not like Rollerball which now goes for silly money.
 
I can’t wait for the reveal for this and I want to read in the description “Brand new 4K scan supervised by Neil Marshall “
