Namco Bandai Announce They Are Bringing The PS3 Exclusive Tales Of Xillia Out Across The West In 2013

Namco Bandai have announced they are bringing to the West the PS3 Exclusive Tales Of Xillia. the game had previously only been released in Japan, but now the game will be released across Europe and Australasia in 2013, and i presume the USA as well. Namco Bandai say the reaction of fans to other Tales titles like Tales Of Graces f and Tales Of The Abyss made it a easy decision to localise Tales Of Xillia. i found a trailer relevant to the game, but i don't know enough Japanese to say what part of the game it shows, but The press release best describes the game.


"Tales of Xillia follows Jude Mathis, a clever medical student attending school in the capital city, and Milla Maxwell, a mysterious woman accompanied by four unseen beings. Players will be able to choose either Milla or Jude at the outset of their adventure through the world of Rieze Maxia, where humans and spirits live together in harmony.  The kingdom of Rashugal has been experimenting with a powerful device that has been draining the mana from the world.  Realizing the harm it is inflicting on the world, Milla and Jude set off on a journey to destroy it and restore the mana back to the world.   Over the course of the game their lives will intersect with a vast ensemble of characters that will teach them the meaning of life, and what it truly means to live for oneself. 

Players will engage enemies with the critically acclaimed Linear Motion Battle System that the Tales of series is famous for.  The system allows for real-time movement and attacks, giving the player a more tactile role in the midst of fights.  The battle system in Tales of Xillia has been upgraded to let two characters combine their attacks to utilize devastating dual-character attack, letting fans strategize the best party setup for their style of play."
