Detailed by Dark Horse today, the publisher revealed that The Art of Battletoads is set to release next summer on June 15, 2022. The art book will retail for $39.99 and is also now available to pre-order through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or other local bookstores in your vicinity. And while Battletoads as a whole has been around for decades, The Art of Battletoads will solely feature new looks at the art that was found in the 2020 reboot of the series that came to Xbox and PC platforms.

In addition, when it comes to what The Art of Battletoads will actually have in store within its many pages, Dark Horse has given this description of the book:
“Drop into vibrant illustrations of the game’s heroes, villains, and environments that evoke nineties cartoon nostalgia! Hop in and race through a wealth of production materials from early concept art to finely tuned combat and stage design throughout late development stages. This book is filled to the brim with unique development insights and also revisits the franchise’s classic titles, which informed an all new, battle-ready era of ‘Toad!
Celebrate the return of Rash, Zitz, and Pimple in this immense, 192-page art book for Rare Ltd. and Dlala Studios’ thrashing beat-em-up adventure, Battletoads!”
