Assassin’s Creed Shadows arrives on November 15, offering up a sprawling world to explore and two playable characters for you to master. If you’re a longtime Assassin’s Creed fan, consider pairing your preorder with the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Shadows art book, which arrives just a few days after the video game on November 19. The Art of Assassin’s Creed Shadows contains over 250 pages of art and commentary and should serve as a cool companion for the game. It’s pretty rare for a video game art book to release alongside the game. The hardcover book is available in two formats–standard or deluxe–and both are now up for preorder ahead of their launch this holiday season.
The Art of Assassin’s Creed Shadows
$50
This hardcover art book is 256 pages long and is published by Dark Horse Books. The company has a history of producing high-quality collectibles, and The Art of Assassin’s Creed Shadows should be no different. The team at Ubisoft worked with Dark Horse Books to pull together “an art book in the tradition of the world-spanning Brotherhood, aiming to satisfy and inspire shinobi assassin and samurai of all generations.” In other words, this aims to be a comprehensive book that touches on all major aspects of the game. If you preorder now, you’ll get the lowest price offered between the time you order and release–you won’t be charged until Amazon ships your book.
The Art of Assassin’s Creed Shadows (Deluxe Edition)
$95 ($100)
The deluxe edition is seeing a slight discount ahead of launch, and it’s a nice upgrade from the standard edition. This version also clocks in at 256 pages, though it’s loaded with exclusive packaging and additional accessories, such as a decorative slipcase and a portfolio with a gallery-quality print. Just like with the standard edition, you’ll pay the lowest price Amazon offers until launch when your order ships.
If you haven’t preordered Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you’ll find tons of retailer-exclusive offers in our Assassin’s Creed Shadows preorder guide. This includes an exclusive steelbook at Target, a collector’s edition that’s only sold at GameStop, a lithograph set from Best Buy, and exclusive in-game content from Amazon or Walmart.

For more Assassin’s Creed Shadows artwork, you’ll find a metal poster from Displate up for preorder at Best Buy. The striking image features the game’s two protagonists–Yasuke and Naoe–on an eye-catching red and white background. Preorders are still available ahead of its November 15 launch, so give it a look after you’re done checking out the art book.
