Good lord, this deluxe new God of War Ragnarok artbook is beautiful. It's also very expensive (damn).
While the standard version sits at a fairly reasonable $49.99 via Amazon (which is par for the course when it comes to coffee-table art books), a special The Art of God of War Ragnarok weighs in at a wince-inducing $129.99 instead. However, that price point isn't too surprising in context; with a "leather-like clamshell case and cover, along with two gallery-quality prints", this is the definition of a premium edition and one of the better gifts for gamers we've seen recently.
It looks entirely different to the standard version, too. Even though the game's logo graces the case, the book itself features Thor's hammer on the cover instead with runes along the spine in lavish gold. Because the god of thunder himself will be challenging Kratos and Atreus in the game when it comes out at the end of this year (seemingly joining Freya as the story's main antagonist), that's only right.
You can see both editions below.
This isn't the only handsome special edition launching alongside the game, either. The God of War Ragnarok Jotnar edition has Thor's hammer, and it's proven to be so popular that scalpers are already reselling it for double its price.
No matter which version of the God of War Ragnarok artbook you choose, you're getting exclusive, full-color concept art along with a creative commentary on the game's development. Both launch November 29, which should give you enough time to finish Kratos' latest adventure considering the fact that the game arrives earlier on November 9 (you can pre-order the launch edition for $69.99 at Amazon).
