What are the Elden Ring Official Art Books?
Three hardcover volumes for one game and its expansion, the largest art-book commitment on this shelf.
The Elden Ring Official Art Books are published in Japan by Kadokawa Game Linkage and in English hardcover by UDON Entertainment, following the house pattern set by the Dark Souls Design Works. Volumes I and II divide the base game’s designs between them, landscapes and characters, enemies and equipment, and both went out of print at retail in the West, joining volumes II and III of the Design Works in the sold-out-and-climbing class of FromSoftware print.
Volume III is the expansion’s book: Shadow of the Erdtree’s art, 320 pages in the same 8.25-by-11.75-inch hardcover format, released in English by UDON on March 5, 2026 at $59.99 (ISBN 9781772944051), with content matching the Japanese edition.
THE THREE VOLUMES
Kadokawa · UDONVolumes I & II · the base game
The Lands Between documented in two volumes: geography, demigods, bestiary and armoury. Western retail copies are gone; the secondhand market carries them now.
Volume III · Shadow of the Erdtree
The Land of Shadow in 320 pages, the expansion treated with the same full-volume honours as a standalone game, because in scale and in sales it functioned as one.
