re-release
Returned to market
Re-release refers to something issued again after its original publication or distribution.
A film gets a theatrical re-release, a classic album appears on vinyl, a video game returns with updated graphics.
The term works as both noun and verb: The studio announced a re-release of the restored director's cut; They're re-releasing the album on its twentieth anniversary.
