    Whether you're a long time Tales Of fan or just a fan of RPGs in general, Tales of Xillia Remastered promises to engage its players in music, story, characters, and a combat system that takes a bit of getting used to but is very satisfying to pull off as you weave multiple Artes into each other - it very much feels like learning fighting game combos once you adapt to them. Tales of Xillia Remastered comes very recommended.

    Tales of Xillia Remastered is an acceptable way to reexperience a classic work in Bandai Namco's franchise. Its quality as a remaster isn't absurd, but it's a basic, fair work to keep it accessible to a new generation after over a decade stuck on the PS3.

    Tales of Xillia is something of a classic, a game that for a long time wasn’t available on modern systems. To truly play it, you either needed access to a fairly old console or had to rely on less official methods. A remaster is an excellent solution for players who don’t want to purchase outdated hardware just to enjoy a single game. This remaster is done quite well, and even though some aspects of the game haven’t aged particularly gracefully, it’s still well worth the time for many players today.

    Tales of Xillia is not perfect but it remains a deeply enjoyable and emotionally resonant JRPG. Its heartfelt storytelling, strong character development, and exciting combat continue to define what fans cherish about the Tales of series.

    Tales of Xillia Remastered doesn’t feel like an entirely new RPG in 2025, but it’s a wonderful way to preserve a well-loved title in a great series. Its fantastic combat and old school charm will appeal to all lovers of JRPGs, and fans of the Tales series will likely already have bought it now.

    Tales of Xillia Remastered is another successful feather in the cap of the series’ 30th anniversary Remastered Project. While the game itself has some wrinkles in the story department, and visually the game shows its age, it is still filled with fun combat, wonderful characters, and one of the best antagonists in the whole series.
