The salt and vinegar Discos - loved by many Brits in their childhood - will come in multipacks filled with six 25.5g bags.
Priced at just £1.50 for a multipack, Discos will first be available in B&M, Asda and Sainsbury's from mid-April.
They will then roll out to other retailers such as Farmfoods and Tesco in mid-June.
They were last available as multi-packs in 2019/2020 and are now back due to consumer demand, according to manufacturer KP Snacks.

KP Snacks also produces hits such as McCoy's, Space Raiders and Nik Naks.
The news comes after the iconic brand confirmed it had axed bacon-flavoured Discos.
The iconic flavour has been discontinued in 2015 but only recently the fans have raised concerns.

Shoppers had become increasingly baffled as to why they couldn't find the beloved crisps on the shelves.
A spokesperson sadly announced: "Unfortunately the popularity of this snack has been on a downward trend for a while, therefore, sadly, production was no longer commercially viable and the product had to be discontinued.
"We have no plans in producing these again in the near future. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news."
