Tales of Berseria Remastered Launches Tomorrow With Over 70 DLC Items and Welcome QoL Upgrades
Bandai Namco’s action JRPG remaster arrives Feb 26 on PS5, Xbox, Switch, and PC with faster movement, instant pickups, and every original DLC item.
If you missed Velvet Crowe’s revenge-fueled quest the first time around, tomorrow is your chance to experience one of the best entries in the Tales series with a fresh coat of paint. Tales of Berseria Remastered drops on February 26 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch, with the PC version following on February 27 via Steam.
What Is New in the Remaster
Bandai Namco has not just upscaled the visuals — though the remaster does look significantly sharper on modern hardware. The real stars are the quality-of-life improvements that make the game feel like it respects your time. Movement speed is bumped up by 1.2x across the board, item pickups on the field now happen instantly with a single button press, and new destination icons keep you pointed in the right direction without constantly opening the map.
There is also early access to the Grade Shop, a feature the original locked behind a completed playthrough. For veterans, that is a fantastic reason to dive back in. For newcomers, it smooths out the early hours considerably.
Over 70 DLC Items Included at Launch
Every piece of downloadable content from the original 2016 release comes bundled in the remaster — that is over 70 items, including costumes, accessories, and bonus content that originally cost extra. It is a generous package that adds serious value, especially for players who love customizing their party.
Why Berseria Still Resonates With JRPG Fans
Tales of Berseria stands out in the franchise for its character-driven narrative and its willingness to put a morally complex protagonist front and center. Velvet Crowe is no typical JRPG hero — she is driven by grief and determination, and the story earns every emotional beat along the way. The combo-heavy Linear Motion Battle System remains satisfying, rewarding players who learn each character’s strengths and chain devastating attacks together.
Where to Play and What It Costs
The remaster launches at $49.99 for the standard edition across all platforms, with a deluxe edition available for players who want additional in-game bonuses. Physical copies are also available for collectors who prefer a box on the shelf.
Whether you are a Tales veteran looking for a reason to revisit Desolation or a newcomer curious about one of the series’ most beloved entries, February 26 is a great day to be a JRPG fan.
