Holy Crap, the Assassin's Creed Art Book is Amazing

The Assassin’s Creed series, a long-running favourite here on Fine Art, finally has a coffee table book worthy of its production values with the franchise’s fancy encyclopaedia. I got my hands on a copy today, and while it’s not just an art book, the concept and promotional pieces dominating the pages certainly make that the main attraction.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); While the project began life as a mere art book, it grew into a full-blown encyclopaedia, complete go rummy with historical notes, character bios and in-depth explanations of the series’ backstory. https://kotaku.com/assassins-creed-fans-and-game-writers-team-up-to-build-5836272 Those picking up the collector’s edition of Assassin’s Creed: Revelations (in Europe and Australia, at least) will get the same black copy featured in the gallery above. If anyone else wants one, you can buy a white version – which features additional content – from Ubisoft’s online store To see the larger pics in all their glory (or so you can save them as wallpaper), right-click on the “expand” icon on the main image above and select “open in new tab”. Fine Art is a holy rummy celebration of the work of video game artists.
