Someone's gotten their hands on the BOTW 2 artbook way ahead of release. Though The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is three months away, the artbook from the Collector's Edition of the game has popped up online. The lucky fan who managed to get a copy of the book so early has taken pictures of it, and posted them online for all to see. In it are 204 pages of character designs, locations, enemies, weapons, and just about everything you could expect to see in the upcoming game.

Nintendo is already going after re-uploads of the artbook with takedown requests, given the leaked nature of the content. Beware of spoilers, or venture forth to find them, as once something is uploaded to the internet, it'll always be there, somewhere. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be out on May 12th.

Ah! yes, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of Nintendo!

To me the magic of BotW was going in blind. Something like this is a shame.

Honestly after having looked through it, it doesn't seem to flat out spoil all that much. There is practically no context behind any location or enemy that I saw in there. I mean if the art book comes with the game in this edition, they really wouldn't put major stuff in there

 

[sroemr]

Don't care much about the art book, but it's mere existence at this stage should ease any worries about another delay.

hope it launches on wii u too

Next leak will be the actual game leaked 1 week before it's official release date.

The stuff in the artbook made me more excited for the game than the last 3 trailers.

This is more of the same BotW so it's not much of a spoiler.

Information is there for who want to use it. I don't see anything bad on it.
I got BotW when I got my switch more than a year after the release, and managed to keep away from spoilers without any problem. It's not that hard to avoid to see stuff like people keep crying about.

I still quite dont understand how leaks like this are even possible

Books need to be printed months in advance.
Likely someone took a copy from the printing company.

 

[Dax_Fame]

Don't get too excited. Didn't they have grand ideas for botw that weren't included? I doubt this will be any different.

They focused on what really mattered...... More crafting mechanics

 

[DJPlace]

wow art books spoils games.... why do people leak this stuff i don't know...

Legend of Zelda: Above and Below.

This game's gonna be friggin massive. A remixed overworld, as well as a ton of sky and underground. So many different weird things there!

And like, wow, the weapon variety. Funny how they're sticking out of the enemy's faces tho.

Also, I saw an enshrined magatama. Amber Relic looking thing. Hmmmmm~

LOL you forgot to say "Don't share copyright material"

I'll be paying for the game so I will get it when it's officially released. Don't be a dick to Nintendo and pirate it.

Neat for people who wanna see it, but I want to go in blind. I've already been spoiled too much by the trailers.

Anyone who feels like that is welcome to stay away from the leak....it's not like the lately is going to jump at you, I haven't seen any of it so far and I'm not trying to avoid it
