The Assassin's Creed series is getting a couple of big art books in the coming months, starting with The World of Assassin's Creed: Valhalla: Journey to the North -- Logs and Files of a Hidden One on July 11, followed by The Making of Assassin's Creed: 15th Anniversary Edition on September 12. Both books are available for preorder at Amazon, and both have standard hardcover editions as well as limited-edition versions with slipcases and lithographs.

The Making of Assassin's Creed: 15th Anniversary Edition

Standard - $50 | Deluxe - $100

　　The Making of Assassin's Creed: 15th Anniversary Edition examines the last 15 years of Ubisoft's action series. The $50 standard hardcover edition features 240 pages of art from the series' many games, as well as interviews with developers and articles covering Assassin's Creed's history.

　　The $100 Deluxe edition, shown above, includes the book with a special cover, a slipcover, and two lithograph prints. You can preorder both at Amazon.

　　Neither of the editions are discounted at this time, but Amazon often marks down books prior to release. If you order now, you'll get the lowest price offered up until release thanks to Amazon's preorder price guarantee.

　　By the time this book releases, it'll be closer to 16 years since the Assassin's Creed launched. Ubisoft actually announced this book last year right around the 15-year mark.
