Should you buy the Metaphor: ReFantazio Official Strategy Guide?
(Image credit: Sega / Atlus)

I’ve been collecting guides since the late 90s, and I always recommend pre-ordering them when you can - especially where hardbacks are considered. If I never pre-ordered my The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Game of the Year guide, I’d be subject to the extortionate second-hand prices from cheeky re-sellers. Now it, and all the stunning artwork inside, sits amongst my game guide shelf, where I’m also saving a spot for the officialMetaphor: ReFantaziobook.
As an avid Atlus and Persona fan, I’ve eagerly saved a spot for the game amongst my back catalog. With all thePS5 salesfloating around, I was planning on picking it up asap, but saving it until February when I could also have the official strategy guide at my disposal sounds like a better option.
Atlus RPGs are notorious for being an investment of your time. Just like Persona 5 Royal, Metaphor: ReFantazio is long, taking about 80 - 90 hours for an average playthrough. Having the official guide along for the ride will surely make it an easier ride, especially as it contains a walkthrough for every event and details on every single item and piece of collectible equipment.
There are also details about all the characters' skills and Synthesis attacks, so I can master the RPG and blast through it in no time. For those, like myself, who love picking up a physical guide for collection’s sake, pre-ordering the Metaphor: ReFantazio Official Strategy Guide will mean you can get your hands on a bonus poster featuring a full map of the game’s world of Euchronia - perfect for sprucing up your RPG-loving gaming setup.
