For example, I cannot begin to tell you the amount of times I’ve had friends asking if they need to have played all the others before starting the latest Final Fantasy game. I get it, naming conventions suggest they are all related. So, going back to an earlier title will only ever help, right? Whilst the Tales series aren’t going back to the very beginning with this next release, it is certainly far enough back to get new players interested. From the series most recent release in Tales of Arise, we are heading back some 20 years for the next release. Tales of Symphonia Remastered is out today on Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch.”
