Tales of Symphonia HD Remake Gets Xillia Crossover Costumes

Zelos gets Alvin, Presea gets Elize, Kratos gets Ludger costume

The September 5 issue of Enterbrain's Weekly Famitsu magazine announced on Thursday that Tales of Symphonia: Unisonant Pack, the PlayStation 3 remaster of both Tales of Symphonia games, will include more new crossover costumes. The game will include a Tales of Xillia Alvin and Elize costume for Zelos and Presea, respectively, and a Tales of Xillia 2 Ludger costume for Kratos.

The set will bundle both the original Tales of Symphonia game (with its added features from the earlier PlayStation 2 port), as well as the Tales of Symphonia: Ratatosk no Kishi (known as Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World in North America) sequel for the Nintendo Wii.

The remaster will feature new cover art, new Mystic Artes cut-in images, and new Tales of the Abyss-themed costumes for Lloyd and Genius (Genis in North America). All three theme songs for the game will be remixed for Tales of Symphonia: Unisonant Pack, including Day After Tomorrow's "Starry Heavens" and "Soshite Boku ni Dekiru Koto" opening themes that were used for the original game's Gamecube and PlayStation 2 releases respectively, and Misono's "Ninin Sankyaku" song that served as the sequel's opening theme.

The remaster will debut in Japan on October 10 for the price of 6,980 yen (about US$70). First copies of the game will come with an original greeting card with an illustration from animation studio ufotable, a greeting card from Katsuyuki Konishi (voice of Lloyd) and Hiro Shimono (voice of Emil), an original PlayStation 3 custom theme, as well as other unannounced contents.

Namco Bandai Games plans to also release the set in Europe, Australasia and the Americas early next year under the working title Tales of Symphonia Chronicles.
