Tales of Festival 2014 Site Open! Info On Guests And More!

The official website for Tales of Festival 2014 has just opened revealing the list of guests and show times.

 To those who are new to this, Tales of Festival is a big annual event being held by Bandai Namco Games since 2008. It usually involves merchandise exhibits and sales, new Tales announcements (Tales of Symphonia Chronicles was first revealed there during Tales of Festival 2013, in the form of Tales of Symphonia Unisonant Pack), with the main highlight being a stage event featuring various voice actors from the Tales of Series, as well as musical performances by some of the opening themes artists.
