Shin Megami Tensei IV Strategy & Design Book
Shin Megami Tensei IV Strategy & Design Book is an art and guidebook for Shin Megami Tensei IV included in the Limited Edition Box Set of the game, which was available to customers who pre-ordered or purchased first-print editions of the game.
In Japan, the book is packaged in the casing of the Shin Megami Tensei Music Collection CD included in the Limited Edition Box Set, and are both collectively referred to as Shin Megami Tensei IV Sound & Art Collection. The book contains a small selection of character and location artwork, along with liner notes for the accompanying soundtrack and an interview with Kenichi Tsuchiya and Ryota Kozuka.
In North America, the book and CD are separate items. The North American print of the book was also expanded, including the art selection and liner notes from the Japanese print, along with a small guide of Shin Megami Tensei IV by Prima Games, covering the game's mechanics, a walkthrough up to Shibuya, and Challenge Quest and Demon data.
