Tales of Vesperia and the dual region launch

The wait for Tales of Vesperia won’t be long between North America and Japan. Unlike Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, the first Tales game for the Xbox 360 will be the first game in the Tales series to have a simultaneous launch in the two regions. The exact launch date has not been announced, but it will happen sometime this year.

Sticking with the international focus, the theme for Tales of Vesperia will be sung in English and Japanese. The song is “Ring a Bell” by Bonnie Pink, a J-Pop artist who you may recognize from one of the Rurouni Kenshin ending songs. The YouTube clip below has a sample of the Tales of Vesperia theme.
