The Devil May Cry 4 Material Archive - Saber of Savior (デビル メイ クライ 4 公式設定資料集 saber of savior?) is a Japanese artbook that was published by Enterbrain, Inc. on May 30, 2008.

Contents[]
The book is separated into eight sections, with Chapter 0 and the DVD Contents Guide mostly serving as a Table of Contents for the book and the DVD, respectively. The remainder of the book is broken up into five chapters (Devils, Casts, Weapons, Scenarios, and Elements) and a 'Talk' section, which is a several-page long interview with the developers.
Chapters 1-3 include concept art that is often accompanied by developer commentary, while Chapter 4 is a full script of Devil May Cry 4 with both Japanese and English translations. Chapter 5 is a brief section that includes information on the game environments. Most of the art can be found already in the Devil May Cry 4 Devil's Material Collection.
