Tales of Symphonia and Dawn of the New World for the PlayStation 3 coming out in Japan in October 10 this year.

The game is set to release in Early 2014 for the West (US/EU).

The bundle will use the PlayStation 2 version of Symphonia.

Costumes for Lloyd and Genis such as Guy's costume or Luke's.

Features new cut ins for hi-ougis and it will have new art.

New Starry Heavens music.

The Regal and Lloyd one (Ryuuko Metsugajin) is new to people who only played the GC version. It's a new Unison Attack for the PS2 version.

Notable changes for the PS2 version:
- Crappy framerate (60->30FPS), textures, and load times compared to GC ver. Hopefully all fixed in HD port.
- Camera doesn't suck as bad with multiplayer
- Unison Bar flashes brighter than the GC version when filled, and fills much faster.
- Sheena gets cut-ins for her summons
- New anime movies/a few new cutscenes and small side events
- New costumes for the cast
- New Unison Attacks, artes (for both party and bosses), mystic artes
- Fixed bugs like the T/S bug (the one that allowed you to learn both variations at the same time), infinite combo with spell cast->spell cancel has been removed, Eternal Sword glitch, etc.
- An extra boss battle added to the original EX dungeon and 5 more floors added
- Casino actually works in Altamira now and there's Blackjack and Slots
- Dragon from Earth Temple gives a lot less money



I'll add more info as it comes in.

I wonder if they'll make Dawn of the New World not suck? Eh, well at least we're getting an HD Tales of Symphonia. Yaay!
 
How many HD remakes/ports has Namco done already and were they worthwhile?

(I'm being serious, don't want another Silent Hill HD debacle)

Semi-interested in this, because I enjoyed it a lot in the GCN days, but am really afraid it's not going to hold up.
 
Sweet. Give Regal some good costumes please.

And for the love of everything holy, let us pick our lead character in Symphonia 2!

Why the name? Unisonant? I mean I get what they are going for, but that sounds worse than Square at their lowest

Will get it if it comes over though

Considering the crapload of stuff they're displaying right now on the stream I guess we should expect a ToS3 announcement next year :x
They're taking it way too seriously.

Because Japan.

Yeah, it's really not all that bad if you focus on the gameplay. It's kinda hard to get into though.

Having to recruit crappy monsters kills the gameplay for 99% of jrpgs for me :/
Yes, Pokemon is the 1%

There doesn't seem to be any visual upgrade at all. I'm not sure if I'll bother this way.

I think you can ignore the monster part for the vast majority of the game. At least I can't remember ever bothering with it...

This thing is clearly for people who haven't experienced the series yet.
