BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. has launched TALES OF ZESTIRIA, the latest entry in its beloved RPG series, for the PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system, PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and PC via STEAM across the Americas. For more than 20 years, the TALES OF franchise has been captivating fans around the world with its traditional Japanese RPG elements melded with innovative real-time combat systems and beloved characters.
In TALES OF ZESTIRIA an unseen evil force known as Malevolence is spreading across the land, corrupting the world, and causing humanity to falter. Players will embark on an epic journey as Sorey, a young pure-hearted adventurer whose destiny is to become The Shepherd, an individual of great power who can banish Malevolence. Does Sorey have the courage and heart to wield this extraordinary responsibility for good, or will he fall prey to the evils of its power?
TALES OF ZESTIRIA introduces the newest evolution of its celebrated real-time battle system, enabling faster combat with side dashes and new fusion technique combo opportunities. Throughout his quest, Sorey will befriend humans and spirits known as Seraphim, unseen to most humans, to aide him on his journey. Because of Sorey’s unique ability to communicate with the Seraphim he is able to fuse with their essence to create new elemental artes for strategic attacks to decimate foes.
