Metaphor: ReFantazio’s massive official strategy guide sounds like both an awesome collectible for Atlus fans and a comprehensive compendium of everything you could possibly want to know about the game.

Along with a complete walkthrough designed so that you see and do everything, the guidebook has multiple catalogs of useful information to pore over:

• Archetype Encyclopedia: An exhaustive section covering all skills, Synthesis attacks, and inheritance options.
• Equipment catalog: All items and equipment are included in a section designed to be used as a quick reference sheet.
• Bestiary: Every enemy in the game is chronicled with in-depth stats, including strengths and weaknesses, item drop rates, and other pertinent details.
• Dialogue trees: All of the choice-based dialogue and actions made in the game are outlined to help you form bonds with characters based on your personal preferences.
• Appendices: For those who want true 100% completion, this section contains the full Memorandum, has New Game+ details, an achievements and trophies guide, and a build guide to help you be as prepared as possible for Metaphor’s toughest challenges.

It also comes with a poster-sized map of Euchronia that’s an exact replica of the in-game map.

If you don’t own Metaphor: ReFantazio or want to buy a copy as a gift for a friend this holiday, Amazon still has the physical edition for PS5 and Xbox Series X on sale for its Black Friday price of $50.
