In celebration of the Tales series’ 30th anniversary, Bandai Namco has been slowly working on a “remaster project” that seeks to bring some of the classic RPGs to modern consoles and new audiences.
But the thumbnail for the video features a shot from Tales of Xillia, heavily implying it’s going to be the next remaster.
It’s a pretty novel setup for a Tales game, and while the main narrative stays the same, the protagonist you follow changes how you see the story, and includes different events.
Xillia has arguably the strongest combat system of the entire series, with a unique link system.
There’s also one major question that’s going to need to be answered — will Tales of Xillia 2 also get remastered?
