During EGX 2016 last month, it's been revealed that Tales of Berseria, the new entry of the Tales of series released in Japan in August, will be released super early in 2017 on PlayStation 4 and PC. Finally, Bandai Namco clarified when this super early will be.
Tales of Berseria will be released in North America on January 24th, 2017, with the game hitting Europe a few days later, on January 27th. Alongside the standard edition, a Collector's Edition featuring additional goodies will also be released. Priced at $149.99, it will include:
- Exclusive Tales of Berseria SteelBook case
- Velvet and Laphicet Chibi Kyun Chara figures
- Exclusive 8-Bit retro keychain set
- Special Selection Music CD
- Hardcover prequel novel “A Witch’s Tale: A World Full of Daemons”
- Set of Tales of Berseria trading cards
- Tales of Berseria starter strategy guide artbook
The Collector's Edition is now available for pre-order at participating retailers, and you'd better be quick if you're planning to get it, as only 10.000 units will be available.
A Tales of Berseria playable demo is now available for download on the Japanese PlayStation Store. The demo includes two different modes which allow players to check out a short segment of the full game as well as experience battles in one of the late game areas. There are no news on a possible North American and European release of the demo, but more on the matter should be coming as we get closer to January.
Tales of Berseria is now available in Japan on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. The game will launch on PlayStation 4 and PC on January 24th in North America and on January 27th in Europe.
