  • Released again by DDM in a limited copy of 100 grey vinyl with similar artwork to the gold pressing.
  • Projekt Records, an American record label, updated the CD version by including new artwork upon re-release. This was only available in the United States.
  • Earache Records reissued the CD, but kept the original artwork, choosing to release this internationally.
  • Earache Records reissued the CD again as part of a 3-CD set, along with Crypt of the Wizard and The Stargate. Remastered by Mortiis and repackaged in a deluxe embossed slipcase, it included liner notes by Tommy Udo and featured the original artwork.
