Battle Network Official Complete Works reprint coming soon, with hardcover

Midnite

An Amazon listing has shown up of a hardcover version of the Mega Man Battle Network Official Complete Works (English version). Much like the hardcover Mega Man Zero Official Complete Works that Udon had announced, it sports a pixely, brand new logo. The original print of the English book has been out of print for a number of years. It’s considered hard-to-get and can even be found for more than double its retail price in the aftermarket! This reprint is more than welcome for people who missed it the first time, or want a nice, fancy hardcover version of it.

The first print of Udon’s MMBN Official Complete Works came out in 2011. The book was softcover and the covers were holo-foil.

Japan also reprinted their version of the book in 2016 to celebrate the series’ 15th anniversary. The JP reprint kept the book the same as the first print, typos included. However, the section with Boktai and Duel Masters were completely omitted, but we don’t know if this will carry to the English version. This book was not hardcover.

UPDATE: According to UDON Director of Publishing Matt Moylan, the US reprint will have the same content as the original US print. This means the Boktai and Duel Masters artwork should be included as well.

The hardcover MMBN Official Complete Works is set to retail for $44.99, and to come out August 20, 2019.

Thanks to MegaMasterX for the heads-up.
