The Artifact Edition and Portfolio editions both come with exclusive add-ons and exclusive items. All three editions of the book will come with a Jinx poster, an in-world blueprint, a Vander letter, a removable map of Piltover as well as fold-out spreads featuring content from both seasons of the series.
