Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia has officially released Tales of Xillia Remastered on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X|S, with a next-day launch for PC via Steam. The announcement comes with the game’s new launch trailer.

The remaster returns one of the series’ most beloved entries, now updated with sharper visuals, major gameplay upgrades, and quality-of-life improvements. It also includes more than 40 DLC items from the original release.

Set in Rieze Maxia, a world where humans and spirits live together, Tales of Xillia Remastered lets players experience the story through either Milla Maxwell, a mysterious woman guided by four great spirits, or Jude Mathis, a young medical student from the capital. Their paths collide as they uncover Rashugal’s mana-draining weapon — a threat that could destabilize the entire world. Their mission: destroy it and restore balance.

The remaster introduces several key upgrades, including:

Auto-save and destination icons for smoother exploration
Early access to the Grade Shop with toggles for purchased perks
Enemy encounter toggle, letting players turn off field and dungeon battles when they want to focus on story
The Dual Raid Linear Motion Battle System, enabling real-time combat with linked ally attacks, support skills, and combo chains
40+ DLC items, including character costumes and bonus items

Tales of Xillia Remastered is now available on console, with the Steam version arriving tomorrow.

Horizon Steel Frontiers is an MMO set in the Horizon universe

The game is built for mobile but will have cross-play gameplay with PC.

A few months ago, Sony sued Tencent for copying design elements from the Horizon series for the latter’s upcoming game, Light of Motiram. Though the game has been relatively silent since the kerfuffle, was Tencent on to something? Today, Sony and a Korean studio named NCSoft have officially announced Horizon Steel Frontiers, an MMO set in the Horizon universe.

It’s not just a simple announcement either. The title now has an official 10-minute video to preview the upcoming title. Right now, the trailer has nothing but cinematics, pre-alpha footage, and developer interviews. However, it’s a clear commitment to bringing the MMO to life.

Both the cinematics and the pre-alpha footage show off the familiar mechanical beasts of the series. The main goal of the title is to team up with other players and take down colossal beasts.

The game is set in the Deathlands, a new region inspired by Arizona and New Mexico. Players will have the entire state to play with. And, instead of Aloy, they can create their own personalized characters.

Horizon Steel Frontiers is built for smartphones. However, Sony and NCSoft are working towards cross-platform gameplay for the PC.

Right now, especially since the released footage is from pre-alpha development, we don’t know when the MMO will launch. However, it does look extremely exciting for fans of the original duology.
