On 17. June 2022, 50 years and one day after the original publication date in UK, "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars " was published as a limited anniversary LP (50th Anniversary Half-Speed Masted LP) and as a Picture Disc with the same Master and a replica of the advertising poster for the album.

This re-pressure of "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars " was cut on a specially made Neumann VMS80 cutting machine with fully revised electronics by the restored 192kHz masters of the original master masters of the Trident Studios, without additional processing during the transfer. The Halfspeed was edited by John Webber in the Air Studios.
