The much anticipated Zelda art book, Hyrule Historia, doesn’t come out in Japan until tomorrow, but several new scans of the book are online and at a much higher quality than the previous preview images released by Nintendo.
No, this is not a complete scan of the book; it’s just a few more pages that expand on the previous preview of the book. In addition to larger versions of the Skyward Sword and Link concept art page, we now have a Skyward Sword Zelda concept art page, a Midna concept art page, timelines showing the evolution of Link and Zelda’s visual appearance, and two pages that discuss Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, and Twilight Princess (could these last pages be part of the alleged timeline that will featured in the book?)
UPDATE: We have found a translation for one of the timeline pages (3rd in the below gallery). Also, according to the table of contents, this section of the book (pg. 110-113) falls withing the timeline section of the book (pg. 68-122), and is under the “The Twilight Realm and the Hero’s Descendant” sub-section.
UPDATE #2: More of the available timeline pages have now been translated. Jump inside for more.
