News: Namco’s latest “Tales of” game is exclusive to the PS3 and sends you on a journey to restore the world’s mana.

Tales of Xillia is now available according to Namco Bandai. This newest installment in the long running “Tales of” series brings together an engaging cast of characters as they set forth across the mystical land of Rieze Maxia in a perilous journey to restore the world’s mana and figure out why the spirits that have been peacefully co-existing with humans for generations are beginning to die.

Tales of Xillia will draw players into the grand adventures of Jude Mathis, a clever medical student attending school in the capital city of Fennmont, and Milla Maxwell, a mysterious woman accompanied by four unseen beings. In a tale that can be experienced from either Jude or Milla’s point of view, the two heroes’ paths fatefully intertwine as they learn that the kingdom of Rashugal has been willfully experimenting with a powerful device that has effectively been draining the world’s supply of mana. Faced with the realization that continued experiments would result in dangerous ramifications, Milla and Jude join forces to restore peace to a dying world in a perilous journey that will test their courage and convictions.

Tales of Xillia updates the series’ dynamic real time battle system with the Dual Raid Motion Battle System. This new system allows two characters to be linked together to provide support attacks and powerful linked artes attacks, allowing players to strategize their party setup for their preferred style of play.

Tales of Xillia is available exclusively on the PS3 for $59.99. All first-print run copies of Tales of Xillia will be bundled with limited edition content including a soundtrack CD, character profile booklet and costume DLC at no extra charge. Will you be picking up Tales of Xillia?
