The Super Mario Encyclopedia, the 30th Anniversary book released in Japan in 2015, is getting a western release this October thanks to Dark Horse Publishing, Kotaku have spotted.

As the original Japanese release date might suggest, it includes every Mario game up to Super Mario 3D World on the Wii U. Sadly, that means there is no room for Odyssey, unless Dark Horse decide to work on adding that to the tome themselves.

Currently only revealed for distribution in America on October the 23rd, we are sure, much like Dark Horses previous and upcoming The Legend of Zelda books, we will see the Mario edition in Europe too.

Will you be picking it up? Keep your eyes peeled to N-Europe for any special edition announcements, and let us know what you're looking forward to hearing more about in the forums!
