The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's Collector's Edition Official Guide is a weighty 496-page hardcover with display-worthy cover art featuring the Corrupt Master Sword.

Published by Piggyback and created in collaboration with Nintendo, Tears of the Kingdom's guidebook covers virtually every aspect of the sprawling open-world sequel. Along with an overview and tips for all of the main quests, side missions, shrines, and caves, the book offers comprehensive reference sections for all of the game's enemies, weapons, armor, shields, items, and more.

All of the game's key systems, from crafting and cooking to using Zonai devices to build vehicles and other gadgets, are detailed alongside helpful tips and overarching strategies.

The included World Atlas map section provides the locations all of the Koroks, Dragon's Tears, and collectibles scattered across mainland Hyrule as well as the Sky and Depths.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's Expanded Edition Guide looks great when displayed next to the TOTK hardcover. It also happens to be every bit as comprehensive as Tears of the Kingdom's strategy guide.

Piggyback published this updated hardcover edition roughly a year after the game's original launch. The Expanded Edition adds chapters on Breath of the Wild's pair of DLC expansions. In addition to walkthroughs for the DLC, the 512-page hardcover features a concept art gallery showcasing in-progress illustrations and sketches by Nintendo's designers.

The guide offers an overview of all main missions and side content, including every shrine. You'll also find solutions to all of the game's many puzzles and an in-depth look at the combat system. Catalogs of enemies, gear, and items let you use this book as a reference manual. The 36-page World Atlas reveals locations of collectibles, including every Korok seed. The book also includes a double-sided map of Hyrule with annotations.

Circling back to Tears of the Kingdom, it's worth noting that the paperback edition of the official TOTK guidebook is available for $18.74 (was $30). If you think you'll use the guidebook frequently for reference or want a display piece, the more durable hardcover Collector's Edition is the way to go.

Breath of the Wild's paperback edition guidebook is out of print, likely because it launched alongside the game in 2017, so it doesn't include coverage of the Expansion Pass.
