Tales of Vs.
Tales of Vs. is easily comparable to something like Dissidia Final Fantasy, a fighting game/brawler that brings together characters from across the long-running series. In truth, the actual combat of Vs. is more comparable to Super Smash Bros., as it uses the Linear Motion Battle System to create four-person brawls. Characters can use both normal attacks and artes, and items appear on the field as well. Some of these will restore health, while others like a boomerang-blade will give you a temporary new attack. However, battles generally focus on 2vs2 battles, although you can also play a four-person free-for-all.
Tales of Vs. features an original story, bringing all the characters together in a world known as Dailantia. This world is largely drained of resources, and consists of four countries. Instead of falling back on war, the countries send representatives to fight in battle, and gain resources through it. Of course outside of story mode, there’s plenty of random battles to be had, and even a fun little minigame called Tales of Wallbreaker.
Fans of the series would definitely love Tales of Vs., as it lets you battle it out as some of your favorite characters. There’s over 20 playable characters featured, from Tales of Phantasia all the way up through Tales of Hearts.
