ABOUT

The official masters guide to R-Type Final, published by Enterbrain in 2003 and prepared by the Famitsu book editorial team. At 175 pages it accompanies the PlayStation 2 game that was billed at the time as the series' concluding entry.

Its coverage takes in the effects of every weapon, data on the player craft, stage strategy, enemy units and how to deal with them, an interview with the development team, and a chronology of the R-Type series.

R-Type Final's central conceit is its large hangar of unlockable player craft, and the guide's craft data and series chronology made it the de facto encyclopedia of the R-Type universe as it stood at the supposed end.
