Namco Bandai Games began streaming the second promotional video on Monday for Tales of Hearts R, the PlayStation Vita remake of the original Tales of Hearts Nintendo DS role-playing game. The video previews some of the anime cutscenes that Production I.G is producing for the game. The video also features the game's theme song "Eien no Ashita" by DEEN.
The main scenario with protagonist Shing Meteoryte (Tetsuya Kakihara) will be fully voiced with 10 new animated story events. Additional cast members include Marina Inoue as Kohak Hearts, Masaya Matsukaze as Hisui Hearts, Saeko Chiba as Beryl Benito, Hiroshi Kamiya as Calcedny Arcome, Hozumi Gôda as Kunzite, Shizuka Itou as Innes Lorenz, and Hideo Ishikawa as the exclusive character Galando Grinus.
The graphics, backgrounds, character models, and battle system will also be upgraded. The battle system will also feature 3D graphics and a "chase link" mode that will allow players to make aerial attacks if certain conditions are met. The new game will also include a field map.
Namco Bandai Games will ship Tales of Hearts R on March 7 in a standard edition for 6,480 yen (about US$77) and a "Link" Edition for 9,980 yen (US$119). A download-only edition will also be available for 5,830 yen (US$69).
