I thought we had a thread for this, but I couldn't find one. I guess we just talked about it in various other threads. Anyway, it's been confirmed that the Hyrule Historia book will be officially released in North America by Dark Horse Comics. It will be out in January 2013 for $34.99. Product description: Dark Horse Books and Nintendo team up to bring you The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, containing an unparalleled collection of historical information on The Legend of Zelda franchise. This handsome hardcover contains never-before-seen concept art, the full history of Hyrule, the official chronology of the games, and much more! Starting with an insightful introduction by the legendary producer and video-game designer of Donkey Kong, Mario, and The Legend of Zelda, Shigeru Miyamoto, this book is crammed full of information about the storied history of Link’s adventures from the creators themselves! As a bonus, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia includes an exclusive comic by the foremost creator of The Legend of Zelda manga — Akira Himekawa! Of course, there's also the comprehensive fan translation and scans here. I wonder if this will stay up after the book comes out.

Everything will be translated into English, including small dev notes Nintendo and Dark Horse have been in talks for a few years about doing projects like this Nintendo pitched the Hyrule Historia translation to DH Source

And this is very definitely going to take pride of place next to my Mega Man art books! ;D
