If you have traveled anywhere on the interwebs the past few months on any kind of gaming-related website or forum you will surly know by now that this year is the 25th Anniversary of the famous Mega Man series from Capcom. Whilst there hasn’t really been anything confirmed game wise for the series Capcom has been celebrating with soundtracks, 3DS eShop releases and now… with a official art book in North America.
The standard edition of the book, the full title of which is “MM25: Mega Man & Mega Man X Official Complete Works” will set you back $60.00 through Amazon and will come with 432 pages packed full with official artwork covering both the original Mega Man and Mega Man X franchises.
The official blurb reads:
“MM25: Mega Man & Mega Man X Official Complete Works is an in-depth chronicle of the amazing art created across 25 years of games in the Mega Man series by the good folks at Capcom! Featuring over 400 pages of official game art, concept designs and sketches, rare pin-ups, and all-new tribute art, this is a stunning art book collection that every fan of the Blue Bomber will want on their shelves. UDON Entertainment has faithfully translated the entire book into English, including production notes, creator comments, and three all-new exclusive interviews with the creators from across the history of the series!”
