This is the direct post from Facebook.

Here's the officious, authentic, and to be read in an English accent, word from Prima Games (who will be putting out said book):

"The Lunar: Silver Story Harmony Official Game Guide provides in-depth strategy for helping Alex become the next Dragonmaster!

• Detailed walkthrough with new content!
• Beautiful area maps with key locations and treasure chests!
• Complete item, weapons, armor, and monster tables!
• Strategies for defeating your most powerful foes including statistics on enemies and bosses!
• Data on characters' spells, weapons, and characteristics!
•Location of the fabled Graveyard Duck..."

(I added that last bullet point...)

As some of you have noted, the guide is listed on Gamestop and Barnes and Noble. I don't have an official list of where it's being sold yet, but when I do I'll put up the ordering information for you guys.

"Key locations?"

Did they replace the Thieves' Crest with a key system?

I think it means "key" as in "Important", not "key" as in the object that opens locks.

Example: The Master Ball is a key item that allows you to instantly capture any Pokemon.

Lol. That's the best example I could think of.

Hmmm, they haven't said whether it'll be printed in color or not. LOL Well, it sounds ok so far. Hopefully they DO add some kind of nice poster with it.

I would assume by beautiful that refers to full-color images. Besides, none of my Prima guides are in black and white and they're generally decent quality. Now we need guides printed as nicely as the Collector's Edition Zelda DS hardcover guides.

The Prima guide for SSSC is b&w, so that's probably what liquidpolicenaut was thinking of. It's been a few years now, though.

Ahh, well that would explain the apprehension. I don't think we need to worry about that in this case.

...?

That's exactly what I was referring and it was just a joke on how bad that guide was. I'm pretty sure the new guide would be in color anyway

•Location of the fabled Graveyard Duck..."

Jess from XSEED is referencing the Lunar Blog [Grave of the Duck].

Does GameArts/XSeed get a cut of the profits? If so, I'll buy one.

How can you expect Game Arts to get a cut when these are American based companies? I would assume XSEED gets some kind of cut from the guide, simply for game rights.

It's XSEED's general game blog, not Lunar specifically.

I thought the Graveyard Duck was a Castlevania reference.

The parties to the Lunar copyrights (including Game Arts) probably get some small cut.


It's probably some sort of inside joke.
