Screenshots and Details Revealed for Tales of Berseria
The latest entry in the Tales series hasn't yet been given an official date for a Japanese release but it has already been confirmed for a Western localisation at some point in the future. Here's a selection of screenshots along with details about the game, translated by Gematsu.
The game takes place in the world of Wasteland, on a vast continent called Glenwood. A rare disease known as Gomabyo is turning humans into monsters, and the world is unprepared. The protagonist, Velvet Crau, is betrayed by those she trusted on the night when the scarlet moon rises. Her relatives are taken from her, and her left hand is transformed into that of a demon with the ability to consume monsters.
According to the translation, a 'compass', 'comb', and 'apple' are intrinsic to the story of Tales of Berseria.
In terms of the game's battle system, Tales of Berseria uses the classic Linear Motion Battle System with "free-run-based character control" as well as free camera control and 'artes' set to the face buttons.
The localisation will only be brought to PC and PlayStation 4, moving further away from the PlayStation 3 in the West.
