Tales of the Rays Actually Looks Like a Tales Game

Tales of the Rays is the next free-to-play mobile game in the Tales series… but unlike previous games such as Tales of Link, it actually looks like a Tales game.

It follows two new characters, Ickx (really?) and Mileena, who team up with characters from across the Tales series to save the world from the shadow of destruction.

Notably, Tales of the Rays has a story written by Takumi Miyajima, who wrote for Tales of Symphonia, Tales of the Abyss, and Tales of Vesperia (and Arc Rise Fantasia).

It also features a new variant of the typical Tales combat system, the “Advanced Flick-LMBS.” In other words, it’s the Linear Motion Battle System designed for touchscreens.

Finally, it has a world map, dungeons, and 3D cutscenes. All of these things make it sound less like a typical mobile RPG and more like a true RPG that happens to be made for mobile devices. Check out the new trailer to see Tales of the Rays in action.

It looks pretty interesting.

Tales of the Rays is due out this year in Japan for iOS and Android. They haven’t said yet if it will get a Western release… but if it does, I just might try it.
