New Tales of Vesperia Remaster stuff

Just announced at Day 2 of Tales of Festival 2018, Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition will be getting a whole bunch of collaborative content in Japan!

Tales of Vesperia Remaster ~10th Anniversary Edition~ and the old Tales PS3 DLC Costumes

Announced at the event is that the remaster will be getting a special edition dubbed "10th Anniversary Edition" in Japan. More information on this will be available at a later date. They didn't indicate if this would be multiple special editions like the previous games (Lalabit, Famitsu, etc) or if it would be just one edition, or if it'd be for a particular platform only.

  

In addition, the game will be getting the previously available Tales of the Abyss costumes from the PS3 version as DLC, which has Yuri dressed as Asch, Estelle dressed as Tear and Flynn as Luke from Tales of the Abyss. They were originally a pre-order bonus of the PS3 version, then later became payable DLC costumes with the Abyss characters' hair colors.

Tales of Vesperia
Tales of VesperiaTales of Vesperia is the tenth mothership title of the series initially released for the Xbox 360. The Japanese and North American English localization release dates of the game were within the same month, a first in the entire series. It later got ported to the PlayStation 3 with additional features, but this never got an English release. An updated version known as “Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition” will be released for both Japan & the West in Winter 2018. Vesperia tells the story of Yuri, a former Imperial Knight. A movie called Tales of Vesperia: The First Strike was later released which tells the story of Yuri prior to the game’s events.
