A new Zelda: Breath of the Wild Master Works book just arrived in Japan yesterday. It features a ton of art from the game and other goodies as well.

We have a few new pages showing what the book has to offer below:

Zelda: Breath of the Wild Master Works may eventually be released in the west (and it’ll probably take a long while for that to happen). If you’d like to order a Japanese copy, you can do so on Play-Asia here.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been updated once again, but only on Wii U. The console’s latest version is 1.4.1.

Nintendo’s patch notes make mention of only one thing: “Various fixes to improve gameplay”. Nothing else has been added or changed beyond this. And again, as far as we know, the update is not available on Switch.
