Визначення та Значення "limited release"

What is a "limited release"?

A limited release refers to the strategy of distributing a product, such as a movie, video game, software, or book, in a restricted number of locations or on a limited number of platforms before a wider release. This approach is often used to assess audience response, build buzz, or test the market in select areas. For example, a film might initially be shown in a few theaters or cities to create interest and generate reviews before being released more broadly. Limited releases can help manage initial demand and refine marketing strategies based on early feedback.
