Maybe You Can Finally Enjoy This Tales of the Abyss Trailer

Now that we know Tales of the Abyss on the Nintendo 3DS is headed to North America, what better time for promotional video from Namco Bandai? Enjoy!

Tales of the Abyss doesn’t have a release date in the U.S., but in Japan, Namco Bandai have the game on track for a June 30th release.

Nintendo Power lied about Graces. Why are we trusting them?
- MizuMikomi
  
  That was a preview based upon the editors opinion only, this time we got an interview from the series producer instead. There is also the fact we are getting Tales of graces F. There is also the fact that Rich Bantegui on the Namco Bandai Twitter is acting coy about it, saying he has never heard of such a thing, then asking around for a source and where people obtained the information from.
  
  This on top of the prospect of them supposedly revealing exciting Tales related news next week? Obviously it’s legitimate.
  
  The one thing I wouldn’t get my hopes up for is Tales of Vesperia PS3, since by now, asking for that is a pipedream.

    Tales of Vesperia is a non-starter…at least until graces releases, otherwise Namco risks splitting their profits over two games
    
    Even afterwards it’s still a gamble I wouldn’t put money on
    - HarryHodd
      
      Seems like a lot of people still want it.

    I WANT TALES OF PHANTASIA X!
    
    Seriously though, it should get localized.

  It’s actually a drama CD :/
  
  I hope I don’t have to explain that. But I’ll say that I’d definitely like it. The drama CD, that is.

Europe, Namco Bandai!

It’s a port. I’m now more interested in that new Tri-Ace game.

I am for sure going to be flamed for this statement. But….

Am I the only one who thought the English opening theme was better with the epic 80/90′s rock style?
- vadde939
  
  Well they’re mostly the same theme just the English one is without the lyrics but yeah I agree the English version sounds better.
- Draparde
  
  I agree with you, i enjoy the mixed one someone made on youtube as well thoguh (basicly took both versions and made them into one song)
- Zero_Destiny
  
  Not the only one. So here. Full and Extended Cuts of the instrumental. ^_^

  Meh I like them both, the majority of people usually like the themes without the lyrics and most don’t like j-pop at all even though they like anime. I actually can’t choose between them.
Draparde

Luke’s smile during the clip in with the attack, wow. I love how the character cut-ins appear during the time when mystic artes are used. It would be my first Tales game where I experience it. I believe it definitely enhances the feeling of battle and connection. I cant wait for the english trailer so I can know what they were talking about.
- Ren
  
  I prefer when the cut ins appear before the Mystic Arte starts, they mask the loading times and don’t interrupt the action, it also helps that the Team Destiny Mystic Artes are more cinematic and over top.

I’ve already played this on PS2 and will only get it if it is released in Europe. If no then sorry Namco Bandai…

So glad this is coming to the US again. It’s my favorite Tales game and I hope it does well. Damn you Namco-Bandai, my wallet is in a corner crying somewhere because of all the goodness you’re releasing. :)

I wonder if pre-ordering the Japanese from PlayAsia nets you the drama CD? Do they usually do pre-order bonuses…

I hope this gets released before december, SERIOUSLY!!

Abyss is one of my favoritest games ever…but I’d buy the 3ds version if I ever get a 3DS, after the next two slimmer and better versions are released in the next year or so. This game and Zelda.

We better be getting the JP audio, I’m not buying this game again and playing through It without voiced skits.

  I think the interview said that they had trouble fitting the game on the card, so I doubt they have space for dual audio.
- PurpleDoom
  
  I’ve been under the impression that the game is in every way identical to the English PS2 version (aside from the obvious changes needed in the platform switch), so dual audio is highly unlikely, IMO.

“Tear Grants”
Well, at least it’s not “Tear Glants”. That’d just be weird.

I am so overjoyed at the news. I’m still pulling for an August 2011 release!

You know, between this, Tales of Graces F and Enslaved, Namco Bandai is working its way back into my heart again.
xflame10

so how does this game compare to DoANW? i loved that one.
- http://tristsantithesis.tumblr.com/ Tsunayoshi Sawada
  
  It actually blows that one out of the water, definitely in the upper echelon of Tales of games.
  - xflame10
    
    well i either have to give up blazblue or zelda to get this…. thanks for the help

  Tales of Symphonia 2: Dawn of the New World for the Wii? If that’s what’s your talking about I say it’s definitely better. The combat is very similar with the free-range of motion. But the exploration is better, you can actually travel the world map, and fly in an airship. The skits aren’t voiced though like they are in Symphonia 2 though which is kind of sad.
  
  I found the story in Abyss to be better as well. Lots of good twist and turns. It started kinda plain but four or five hours in the story really picks up. The acting is good and all the charas are well thought out. You get more than two party members this time but don’t have the ability to recruit monsters into your party. It can be pretty long I think I put like 60 or 70 hours into it and I say it’s a bit more difficult than Symphonia 2 but not beat yourself up over it kinda hard. If you really liked Symphonia 2 then I think you’ll Abyss. It’s one of the favorite games for a lot of American Tales fans.

    thanks i’ll look into this.
