Already got the JP one that has EN text + JP text. Wish this one was hardcover to double dip. Will decide later now. It is a great artbook.

I thought this was an official statement for a second. I found it the other week and I placed an order on it. May as well get the artbook of the best Souls game (best art direction at the very least).

That is going to be one beautiful book.
I'm too excited for it just being an art book, but because I love Bloodbornes art style so much, I just need a way to have more of it.

Same here, I'm treating mine like a treasure.
Happy more folks get the chance to buy it.

Hope the paperback entry is a listing mistake.
Fuck hardcover.
Books are meant to be opened and handled comfortably.

Already got it preordered. Really hope they offer a dark soul franchise art book because I've heard ds1 has a bad art book and 3 doesn't have one to my knowledge.

I pretty much never buy artbooks, but I recently got into Bloodborne and fell in love with it. Its artstyle is gorgeous, so I'd really be interested in a book like this. I'm hemming and hawing, but I probably won't pick it up. It's just too much money for something I won't spend a ton of time with.
It's something that would make a perfect gift for me though -- something I really want but can't justify purchasing on my own.

No it makes me sad
I got mine last week. Pretty impressed with the overall quality. I do wish it was hardbound like the Darksouls books. Hopefully we get a DS3 artworks too.
The only minor quibble I have is that there is not enough artwork on Lady Maria. For such a great badass boss I was really hopeful they would have had more artwork.
Also I got in @$22 so my opinion may be skewed. I was worried for a minute that Amazon was gonna cancel my order right at the end when they couldn't confirm the date and then I actually got it before the 'release date'
Yeah thats pretty much the only thing about the quality of it, it isn't a hardcover, very odd for an official artbook not to be. But like I said, the quality of the paper/pages slightly makes it less painful. I'll look into it tomorrow and give my thoughts on the art.
Looked through the artbook, I can tell you i'm impressed with the amount of content, compared to other books. Theres art separated into each location from the game, containing each boss and enemies, as well as the architecture of the locations. It even includes all the items and trophy art too. The addition of the art from The Old Hunters is a plus, although there wasn't enough Ludwig for me, as he's one of the most interesting bosses on the game, I thought there would be a bit more art on him included. Overall if you're interested at all, its a great purchase.
