Dark Horse Comics scored a major hit with the videogame-based art book, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, which has sold over 400,000 copies since its debut in 2013, and it is certainly no surprise that Dark Horse has a number of other videogame-based volumes teed up and ready for the 2014 holiday season.
 
In October, Dark Horse will publish The Art of Dragon Age: Inquisition (MSRP $39.99), a 184-page volume that takes readers behind the scenes of Dragon Age: Inquisition, the most ambitious fantasy game created so far by the talented developers at BioWare.  Illustrated with hundreds of previously unseen artworks and captions provided by the game developers themselves, this volume covers every aspect of the new game including the heroes, the weapons they use, the beasts they battle, and the extraordinary environment in which they live.
 
Also due in October from Dark Horse is The Art of Naughty Dog (MSRP $39.99), a 184-page hardcover that provides readers with a 30-year retrospective tour of the Naughty Dog game studios rise to prominence thanks to games like Jak and Dexter, Uncharted, Crash Bandicoot, and The Last of Us.
