As rumored last week, one of the best entries in Bandai Namco's Tales of series will be making a comeback to current-gen consoles later this year as Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition.
Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition has been confirmed for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch and it's scheduled to release this Winter. The game will include all the additional content added to the PlayStation 3 version of the game, such as two new playable characters, new bosses, new dungeons, new story events and more.
Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition includes upscaled screen resolution, new characters, events, and costumes never released outside of Japan. This updated version of an RPG classic will be released this winter.
Follow Yuri Lowell, a resident in the Lower Quarter of Zaphias and former Imperial Knight, as he accepts a mission to retrieve a stolen Blastia Core used to regulate his neighborhood’s water supply. This simple mission spins into a series of events that finds Yuri befriending a colorful cast of characters, traveling to exotic locations, and being pushed into the middle of a nefarious plot that threatens the destruction of the entire planet.
Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition uses a specialized version of the Tales of series’ Linear Motion Battle System for combat. Players control a single party member in real-time combat while the other three party members are controlled by a customized set of A.I. commands. Players can swap between the four characters at any time during battles and can perform both physical and Mystic Artes attacks.
Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition launches on PC and consoles this Winter.
