Namco Bandai Games Europe today announced that role-playing title Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World will be released across Europe and PAL regions this autumn with exclusive new content.
Dawn of the New World continues the story of Tales of Symphonia for the Nintendo GameCube and introduces a new monster collection system that allows players to capture, evolve and battle with more than 200 monsters alongside a huge cast of new and returning characters.
The game is set two years after events of the GameCube title and introduces two new heroes, Emil Castagnier and Marta Lualdi, as they journey to find the cause of a catastrophic change in their world.
The previously mentioned monster capturing system is the major new addition. Players will be able to capture more than 200 unique monsters that they face in battle. It will also be possible to feed these monsters to make them more powerful, and even evolve them into several new forms. Up to three monsters can be taken into any battle situation.
The PAL release will also feature brand new exclusive content, including a Gallery Mode and head accessories. Unlocked once the game is completed, Gallery Mode includes a Skits Library containing viewable skits of the gameplay, and an Image Library with design sketches, illustrations, pack art and more. A number of new themed masks and head accessories for Emil and Marta will also be available.
