Bandai Namco has announced Tales of Crestoria, a brand new entry in the Tales of RPG series for smartphones.

Weekly Famitsu this week has the first official preview of the game, revealing its crime-burdened protagonist and the story of the life he lives for the things that are important to him. The magazine also has comments from Yasutaka Nakata and Kamikaze Douga, who were in charge of the protagonist visual and concept teaser, a message from producer Tomomi Tagawa, and more.

The world said it was a crime."

Aren't people going to complain that this game is basically a Tales of Persona 5? Down from the color to the theme haha.

Tales of Persona :thinking:

Is this a "real" mainline title? I Don't follow the series anymore, but since Beseria what have they said about the next title?

And yo, why do they all end in "-ria" now? I'm starting to mix them all up, lol.

Lol, it depends. They'll call something mainline, then retract that when the game isn't received well, like Tales of Tempest on DS.

Don't think they've called a mobile title mainline yet though, so probably not.

Is this a modern day Tales of game? Seems Persona 5-y from the colour scheme and premise. Sounds interesting!

Why put -eria at the end of every Tales Of title? I never got that, it reads and sounds dump.

Just call it Tales of the Crest or something coherent.

Because you take random words and just add "o","e" or "a" and end it with ria.
They are lazy.

Tales of Pooperia.
Tales of Toasteria.
Tales of Taxoria.
Tales of Shotgunaria.
Etc.
Tales of Kizna
Tales of Asteria
Tales of Wahrheit
Tales of Bibliotheca

... No wait, those are all real games.

On Famitsu interview of Vesperia Remaster, they also a tease a Tales of title for home consoles, so this game doesn't mean that they will be console only.


Like 10+ years ago, Bamco released a lot of Tales of games for phones in Japan with their own story and characters.
