Recently, we covered that there was to be a new Tales of game coming soon, and now we’re starting to get a little more information about it.

Hideo Baba spoke to Famitsu about the game, saying it is a core game in the franchise, not an offshoot of an existing game or any other side game. He also said that while past Tales games have had a fantasy feel to them, this game would have a more modern feel, and he feels that this will be a challenge, but the next step in the Tales franchise as well.

The tagline reads “Are you prepared to destroy the world for the sake of a girl?” and Baba says that is a key question in the story and gameplay. He also stated other Tales games where in the works.

The Tales series’ future is looking much brighter than it did just a short while ago. With more games being produced, and a new core game coming out, as a fan I can’t help but be excited at the future of one of my favorite franchises. With what sounds like an interesting plot and the promise to bring Tales a step forward, this new game is something to keep an eye on. Would you destroy the world for a girl? I totally would.

The next Tales of game will be revealed on June 2.
