What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
✔️ Although the story is a little clichéd, the characters are great and interesting and develop throughout the journey.
✔️ Very fun combat system, maybe even the best combat system in a Tales of game and every chapter adds more stuff to it.
I have nothing but good things to say about this game both for the elements of gameplay and even story.
✔️ Beautifully remastered with sharp textures
The ability to switch between Japanese and English voice acting offers the right experience for every taste.
They really took the time to make this game look even more beautiful and the frame rate is super smooth.
