This Super Mario Encyclopedia is a must for your video game book collection
The ultimate coffee table book?
Mario is getting his very own encyclopedia, courtesy of Dark Horse Publishing. Part guide, part collector’s item, the encyclopedia is sure to be a must-have tome for fans of Super Mario Bros. The Super Mario Encyclopedia follows the huge success of Dark Horse Publishing’s Hyrule Historia series that chronicled the history of the Legend of Zelda franchise.
The Super Mario Encyclopedia explores nearly the entire history of the series, from Mario’s humble beginnings in 1985 to the Wii U’s Super Mario 3D World. Unfortunately, Super Mario’s Switch adventures didn’t make the cut-off for publication, but there should still be a wealth of other information in the encyclopedia’s pages to keep you entertained. The book promises level maps, enemy descriptions, and other behind-the-scenes information on all things Mario.
The encyclopedia is out on October 23 in North America, and you can pre-order it here. The guide's already out in Spain and Germany, but a UK release date is sure to follow soon now that the English language version is confirmed.
