About this game
Tales of Symphonia Remastered follows Lloyd and Colette on a journey to regenerate their world. Its combat takes place in real time, with multiple movement lines connecting combatants across the battlefield. Party members can link their artes in Unison Attacks, while EX Skills add character effects for adjusting how the party fights. The main adventure is for one player, but local companions can join during battles, with each participant needing a controller. Cel-shaded characters and anime cutscenes present the journey. This remaster also adds dates to the save screen and allows some event scenes to be skipped, though exceptions remain. It contains the original game's adventure rather than a package including Dawn of a New World.
