Back in March we revealed the cover art for Star Trek Enterprise‘s second season Blu-ray release (shown on the right). As we always caution with early looks at cover art, this was subject to change. It looks like that warning was apt as today we’ve received word that a new version of the cover art is being used for this release.

The new art (again) keeps the background motif found on the Season 1 set intact, albeit colored blue. In contrast to the earlier design, the new version sports a far bolder look with a wonderful montage of the crew spread over the front framed by a nice shot of the Enterprise NX-01 leaving orbit of a planet. It’s a big improvement over the first artwork, so kudos to CBS for taking the time to redesign it. Click on the image below to view it in higher resolution.

Star Trek Enterprise Season Two will be released on Blu-ray on August 20 in the United States, August 19 in the UK and August 21 in Australia. It will feature the continuation of the behind-the-scenes documentary started in Season 1 and will also boast a brand new cast reunion which brings together the entire principal cast of Star Trek Enterprise, moderated by Brannon Braga. We’ll have pre-order links and a press release as soon as CBS releases the information! Stay tuned!
