The verdict
A well-made remaster of a beloved 2D Tales JRPG with restored camp skits, new voices and optional QoL. Skip it if you want co-op, a deep visual overhaul, or dislike the new dub.
Great for
Tales fans and classic PS1-era JRPG lovers who want the complete game with skits and optional QoL
Main risk
Remaster feels minimal (AI-upscaled art, no co-op, controller issues) and the new English dub may disappoint
What players love
Optional QoL and boost settings
