For quite some time now, Bandai Namco has been reiterating its intentions to release more remastered Tales of games, and it looks like we're on the cusp of learning what's next.
As teased on social media, a remastered project is being announced this very summer. "We have some big news coming..." reads the official Tales of account.
The key questions, then, are what and when. The what is the hard part; there are still loads of old Tales of titles that haven't been revived yet, but the names we always see thrown about are Tales of Xillia and its sequel, Tales of Xillia 2.
Rumours of a remastered duology have been doing the rounds for ages, with a supposed leak of the collection happening around this time last year.
But we wouldn't say anything is guaranteed at this point. Xillia seems like an obvious choice for loads of reasons — but as mentioned, there are plenty of other Tales of adventures that could be brought back instead.
As for when this might happen, well... It's worth reminding everyone that the Xbox Games Showcase is up later today (at the time of writing). We'll have to wait and see.

The only Tales remaster that i really really want are Destiny 1 (PS1 or PS2 remake) & Destiny 2. Sadly, a CIB Destiny 1 PS1 are insanely expensives and Bamco never localized Destiny R and Destiny 2 :/
@ShogunRok Doesn't really seem like an Xbox Showcase type game though does it? Nintendo Direct ( saw on BS) seems more likely, no? 🤷♂️
And about this sentence - "It's worth remining everyone". That reads kina naughty. 😂
I hope it tales of abyss or tales of xilla
A classic collection with destiny remake, destiny 2 and rebirth would be great.
After that, tales of the abyss.
The Xillias i honestly don't feel like replaying. Not that i hate them. It was the last game with the 2D combat that the series thrives on, but it was the start of big empty fields and grocery list questing.
Did they really do an announcement for an announcement of a remaster? I feel like you should save that for a new game or something. But if they're doing it for a remaster maybe it's an important one like for a game that hasn't seen a release outside of Japan. Tales of rebirth for the win!
I really love both Xillia games, but I'm not interested in remasters, I can replay originals any time I want. I want a new entry.
Tales of the abyss needs a remake, not just a remaster. Bandai Namco has the money, so they should be willing to invest in it.
It might happen today then
@Nem some kind of 'classic collection' would be great. A few of the rarer ones in one package.
The Xillia games would be interesting because both are double-buffered (30fps overworld, 60fps combat) and have a darkening filter on the graphics. PS4/5 has kind of a spotty history with old double-buffered games. If they keep all that the same, not much reason to upgrade IMO.
Best case scenario would be a Destiny/Destiny 2 (Tales of Eternia for our friends overseas) double pack. Would save people $300-400!
Tale's of Legendia R would be Great. And Maybe an English release for Innocence r.
Hoping for tales of abyss
Pls tales of xillia remaster collection or abyss remaster (i would prefer a remake for this one)
If Xillia. Awesome. Fantastic game.
Give us a Tales of the Abyss remaster already
Xillia or abyss hopefully I am not a fan of xillia 2
Very likely the most popular tales of games will be remastered first. The games I would like to play is Tales of the Abyss, Tales of Destiny 1/2 ,Tales of Xilla 1/2 and Tales of Heart. The Tales of games that were previously available on the ps3/vita psn store have been removed so all the titles that were previously available are candidates to be remastered.
I imagine it's easier to remaster the newer games onto the current consoles, but I discovered Tales during the PS3/XB360 days. I want to play the ones that came out before then.
