The special deluxe anniversary collector's box set will be released in June 30, and will feature a new 2-LP vinyl edition of the chart-topping album, remastered by Doug Sax at The Mastering Lab from the original analogue tapes, including all the full length tracks in a gatefold sleeve designed by Hipgnosis/StormStudios.

There will also be five other discs, consisting of a red 7” vinyl replica of single 'Take It Back', a clear 7” vinyl replica of 'High Hopes', a 12” blue vinyl replica of 'High Hopes' with reverse laser etched design, the 2011 Discovery remaster of The Division Bell. Plus, a Blu-ray disc and for the first time a 5.1 version of the album, mixed and mastered by Andy Jackson and Damon Iddins.

The Blu-ray disc features a new video for 'Marooned', directed by Aubrey Powell at Hipgnosis. Watch it below.
