Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom leaks seemingly emerge from official art book


The official art book Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has apparently leaked online.

Although the game is still about three months away from release, Reddit user JustJulienOffic posted the images on Sunday, claiming that a friend had sent them an “interesting look” at his art book.

The book comes with the Collector’s Edition of the game and is, according to the user, “just over 200 pages” long.

Although the user original post Reddit Moderators have since removed it, others still remain and the now deleted photos are currently being circulated on social media and other forums.

The images show concept art of Link and other characters in the game (including new faces), as well as renderings of new enemies and locations.

If the leak is proven to be genuine, it will be frustrating Nintendowhich has historically gone to great lengths to keep the content of its games secret before their release.

After several delays, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is finally released Nintendo Switch on May 12.

In addition to the standard version that will be available for a suggested retail price of $69.99The Tears of the Kingdom Collector’s Edition will be released for a suggested retail price of $129.99 and includes a physical version of the game, an art book, a Steelbook case, an Iconart steel poster, and a set of four pins.

Nintendo has suggested that the tone of Tears of the Kingdom will be darker than before. The trailers certainly back this up with their eerie throwback music and terrifying monsters.
