Elden Ring Official Strategy Guide, Vol. 3: Shadow of the Erdtree
D**D
Packed with information & artworks
Definitely worth the money, nice artwork and interesting layout. The text is a little too small for me to read without a bright light but there is a ton of information packed in there. Everything you could possibly need to know bout the DLC, i think.

Very Informative Guide and a Literal Piece of Art
I have always wanted to get ahold of one of these Future Press guides for myself. I couldn’t resist getting this one once I saw it go on sale for about $36. I have been slowly reading through it, and it is chocked full of so much information. I have already beat Shadow of the Erdtree multiple times, so I don’t need this guide as much as I just wanted it. I am happy to report that it’s a well written guide with most information included. Considering I’ve beaten the game numerous times, I can say that this guide book would be very helpful to someone who is brand new to the game. It is also a must-have for huge Elden Ring fans like myself. The amount of time and energy put into this book is commendable. The artwork is incredible and vibrantly detailed. The pages feel nice in my hands. They are thick enough to where it feels like it can handle a little wear, but not too thick either. The map of the Realm of Shadow is very cool too. It comes separate, so you could hang it as a poster if you’d like. One side of the map is unlabeled, and the other side is labeled with all points of interest. Every little piece about this guide book is extremely well thought out and detailed. I even enjoy that they added a section that offers some new build ideas for SotE, and the small chapter of concept art. There are some things included that even veteran players like myself can find new and interesting. I highly recommend this to any Elden Ring fans. Especially get it while it’s still on sale. Once these books sell out , people try to resell them for exorbitant prices. Just look at the first two volumes of the Elden Ring guide. They are all over resale sites for at least over $100, if not a few hundred dollars. Get the third and final volume while still can for a reasonable price. True Elden Ring fans won’t regret it. I also want to note that I didn’t experience any issues with shipping. I’ve seen many people complain that their books came damaged from shipping, and that is completely on Amazon anyway for not packaging books securely. I had no issues though, and mine came in a proper box meant for shipping books. It showed up on my steps in the box, wrapped in plastic wrap stil, and completely protected and in mint condition.

Words can't describe...
This is the epitome of the perfect book for a game.. I can't wait to get the other two when I can afford them. It is a beautiful book. Maps of the dungeons showing the layout. That is so helpful! It is not a walkthrough. It is an explanation of everything with tons of maps of every area, where every boss is location etc. But you are still on your own to find your way. After all, you are a tarnished...Seriously, it's the perfect book!!

These are the premier game guides for Souls games
Sure you can Google hints or watch YouTube videos but these Souls game guides are not only beautiful to flip through but they contain all the information you will ever need without having to go on the internet and search through hundreds of videos. Maps. Enemy strategies. Full item list. Easy five stars

Future press guides are phenomenal
Extremely high build quality. Full of cool bits of information, art, lore etc. Future press guides = the Mercedes-Benz of physical game guides. Top notch

Great for Collectors
Given the existence of The Internet, physical game guides are a nice shelf warming Collector's item for me. I'm a big fan of the Future Press Guides, and am glad to have been able to buy this at a good price before it inevitably ballooned in price. Looks nice from the outside!Please rerelease the Sekiro guide now. Please.

Book is great, Amazon shipment of book is awful
I LOVE these books and this one is no exception. Myissue is that Amazon ships these books loose in the box and they get banged up and destroyed, ruining everything there is to like about the book. Corners smashed, cover scratched, cover ripped in areas. I realize this isn't the company's issue directly, but Amazon is their shipment provider, so they should speak to their Amazon rep and see if there is a way to mark these books as requiring more than a loose oversized box with 0 padding. My assumption is that the vast majority of their buyers want these as collectibles.That said, the book includes a beautiful map and is filled with the same info and art as the first two. I would highly recommend these to any lover of the game.
