Hyrule Historia is an official book about The Legend of Zelda series, featuring previously unreleased concept artwork, a section detailing the official series Timeline, and a preview of the Skyward Sword manga. It was originally published by Shogakukan on December 21, 2011. Dark Horse Books will be publishing an English version on January 29, 2013 for $34.99 as well as, a Collector's Edition set at $70.00, which will be limited to 4,000 copies.[1]
The Origin Story
The first section is all about Skyward Sword, which was released just one month prior to this book. It reveals much of the design process of many of the game's characters and locations and includes some commentary relating these elements to the rest of the series.
A Complete History of Hyrule
- Main article: Timeline
This section begins by presenting the official ordering of each game in the series, which had previously been kept top-secret.[citation needed] It then tells the story of each game, in order, including events that happen in-between games. Even details about individual characters, items, and locations are included in sidebars.
Concept Art
Trivia
- Glitterberri, who led the fan translation of the Japanese edition, was hired by Dark Horse to help with the official English localization.[2]
