In Shin Megami Tensei IV, being a samurai of the Eastern Kingdom of Mikado requires intense training and meticulous focus during combat. Fortunately for the samurai-in-training, pre-orders and a limited run of first prints of the game will include a strategy guide to help endure the trials of combat. The 176-page soft-cover guide was developed specially for SMTIV by Prima Games, one of the leading guide-makers for video games.
From the preview, "I firmly believe that we need a better kind of preview platform for RPGs at events like E3 2013, because its difficult to glean much information from 10-15 minute previews. Some companies create specific scenario demos to get around this, while companies like Atlus do what they did with Shin Megami Tensei IV this year. They provided a demo that put players in the shoes of the hero, Flynn, a group of already leveled up demons and sent us to find a samurai that was stuck deep within a dungeon. Though it didnt show us everything Shin Megami Tensei IV was capable, the demo was still quite effective."
