SEATTLE -- Acclaimed concept artist and worldbuilder Ben Mauro (Halo Infinite, Call of Duty, Elysium, The Predator) is excited to announce the early shipping of the deluxe hardcover edition of HUXLEY: The Oracle, the first major prequel book in the expanding HUXLEY universe. These premium deluxe editions are shipping now in limited quantities, ahead of the worldwide release of the standard edition on December 2.

The Oracle explores the origins of FURY-7, a scorched desert world ruled by the ancient machine empire known as the Oracles. The story follows Max, an elite Ronin enforcer, as he uncovers a conspiracy that sets the foundation for the events of the original HUXLEY graphic novels.

This deluxe edition features over 100 color illustrations from leading industry artists, including Steve Chinhsuan Wang (Gears of War 5), Nikolas Gekko (Halo Infinite, Destiny 2), creator Ben Mauro, and exclusive storyboard material from Syama Pedersen, the director of Astartes (Warhammer 40k).

“The Oracle expands the foundations of the HUXLEY world in a way I’m thrilled for fans to experience,” said Mauro. “The deluxe editions offers a deeper look into the art and storytelling behind this new chapter.”

Limited deluxe hardcovers are available and shipping now, with the global retail edition launching December 2.
