Zelda: Breath of the Wild Master Works book coming west later this year, titled “Creating a Champion”
At the end of last year, a special Master Works book for Zelda: Breath of the Wild came out in Japan. It featured a ton of concept art, a history section, developer interview, and more.
It will have taken about a year in the end, but the book is confirmed to be coming west. It’ll be localized as “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Creating a Champion”. Nintendo will once again be working with Dark Horse on the western version.
Here’s the official synopsis:
This book features nearly fifty pages of sketches and official illustrations from Takumi Wada, two-hundred and ninety-six pages of design artwork and commentary about the making of the game from the creators, a fifty-five-page historical section that divulges the history of Hyrule as it is known in-game, and interviews with key members of the development team–Hidemaro Fujibayashi, Satoru Takizawa, Takumi Wada, and Eiji Aonuma. Witness the making of a champion!
You can pre-order The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Creating a Champion on Amazon here or Amazon Canada here. The retailer lists a tentative November 20 release date.
