Tales of Rebirth official website updated with new screenshots

The official Japanese website for Tales of Rebirth has been updated with more screenshots. Judging by what we see, the former PS2 game is transforming smoothly into a PSP game.

As the Japanese release of Tales of Rebirth is just a little under a month away, it can be expected there will be even more to check out on the official website in the coming weeks. We still haven't heard of a North American announcement yet, or any plans of bringing the game anywhere outside Japan for that matter. What does that mean for us non-Japanese? It's just one more game to fuel our bitter jealousy.

The first Tales of Rebirth trailer appears

It's time to finally see some Tales of Rebirth in action. Well, via this small video screen that shows an even smaller PSP screen (only for a little while, though!). The remake seems to be moving along towards its March release in Japan fairly well. We're very excited Namco Bandai decided to keep the game 2D at heart. As much as we loved Symphonia and Abyss (what do you mean, Legendia? Don't joke with us), we can't ignore the originals in 2D that just felt more ... special. Enjoy!

Peachy keen new Tales of Rebirth screens

Seems that Jeux-France has gotten hold of some fascinating new screenshots for the upcoming PSP game Tales of Rebirth. As with most Tales games, it has a great visual flare and the new screens show us some of what appear to be regular magic spells with a large piece of art depicting the character casting the spell. You also get a glimpse at the "Dramatic CD" you'll never see stateside. The game looks great -- we're very pleased they stuck to a 2D sprite mechanic. Those were the better ones anyway.
