Zelda's Hyrule Historia Gets Limited Collector's Edition

Very few things in life are as iconic as the theme song from Legend of Zelda. Just hearing it preparing to kick in just gets you amped to go shooting swords and collecting rupees. And while a book isn't really musical, any book celebrating the song and property deserves a collector's edition.

The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia Collector’s Edition is limited to only 4,000 copies and contains an introduction by Shigeru Miyamoto, the full history of the Legend of Zelda franchise, and the official timeline of the Legend of Zelda games. This hardcover also collects the Legend of Zelda manga and never-before-seen concept art, in-depth information on the making of The Legend of Zelda and art by some of the most storied concept artists in video games.

The limited edition of Hyrule Historia looks like it could have been pulled off the shelf of one of the sages of Hyrule. The faux-leather hardcover with gold-gilded pages bears the symbol of the Gate of Time, debossed, on the cover. The limited collector’s edition of The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia is perfect for everyone keen on Zelda.
