The guys over at IGN got a chance to attend Namco’s Editors Day event where they were able to catch a sneak peak at the sequel to one of the best Tales games to have ever been made, lucky bastards. Good thing though, it is looking like this sequel will not disappoint the gamers who enjoyed the previous game oh so much. While it is housed on a new and unique console, it looks as if the traditional model of gameplay remains. Which is definitely a great relief…

For those curious about what they got a chance to see check out our highlights below:

• Game is controlled via nunchuck + wiimote.
• Monster play/capture will play a moderately big role in this game. Over 200 types of monsters can be captured.
• You can recruit up to 10 party members at a time but only 4 can fight.
• The visuals are looking good, the game runs in 16 x 9.

Time for the bad news, though, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World will not be featuring any sort of world map. Yet another victim to the onslaught of JRPGs that are abandoning this practice, you will instead be point and clicking your way through varied destinations, much like Lost Odyssey is now. Such a shame…
