The book runs past illustrations into production material: the setting drawings Doi made during development carry supplementary comments explaining the meaning and concept behind each design. A gallery section gathers package art and release commemorative illustrations, with making-of commentary on some pieces.
A demon and character directory compiles more than 300 3D models alongside in-game explanatory text, and the volume reprints Doi's social media commentary on new demon designs. An ebtenDX Pack at 9,350 yen bundles an A4 acrylic panel of the cover with Doi's digital signature. Doi is scheduled to hold a signing session on November 21 at SEGA STORE TOKYO.
