Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a short, combat-light adventure may hit a wall with the ongoing party battles and campaign structure.

Our take on Tales of Xillia Remastered
Players who want a single viewpoint may bounce at the opening character choice: the campaign is built around Jude and Milla rather than one fixed lead. Those uninterested in coordinating allies during real-time battles may hit another wall once Dual Raid combat becomes central.
What is Tales of Xillia Remastered?
Tales of Xillia Remastered follows Jude Mathis and Milla Maxwell on separate but connected journeys across Rieze Maxia, a land where people and spirits coexist.
Players choose one hero and travel through the setting while progressing through a dramatic story supported by illustrated scenes and animation. Combat uses real-time movement and coordinated partner attacks, allowing allies to combine abilities and activate support skills.
