"Captivating"
Signed by Motoi Sakuraba and Shinji Tamura, the music combines a fiery orchestra and moving themes across a journey through time. Each battle galvanises through its energy, while the town melodies warm the adventure. This sonic generosity, the founder of the Tales series, stays dear to fans' hearts.

Following Cless and his companions across time unfolds a classic JRPG rich in real-time combat, exploration and side quests. The long main quest and the many secrets feed dozens of hours. That generosity, revived by full voice acting, offers a lifespan RPG fans cultivate.

Is Tales of Phantasia - Full Voice Edition still worth playing in 2026?
A fully voiced reissue of the first Tales of Phantasia from Namco Bandai, this port follows Cress Albane and his companions who travel through time to face the sorcerer Dhaos. The addition of full voice acting, the modernised presentation and the faithfulness to the Linear Motion combat system that founded the series strengthen the appeal of this JRPG classic. Left in Japan, the title demands the language. For a fan of retro JRPGs or of the Tales series, the title keeps a timeless adventure and a combat system still enjoyable.
