Finally after ten days of watching this countdown end, following an earlier countdown website – we are finally* at the point of Namco Bandai’s game announcement process where no more updates are set to be made to the site and the next Tales of game is only hours away to being released.
The formal announcement will be made at 8PM JST on the 12th December 2013 through a Nico Nico live stream.
While it is unlikely that this new Tales of game will be available internationally next year, we can still look forward to English-localized releases of both Tales of Symphonia Chronicles and Tales of Xillia 2 on the Playstation 3 next year.
*Note: I am saying this assuming that they didn’t initially make a countdown page for a countdown of another countdown. While making clear that they like teaser websites, I doubt Namco Bandai love them that much.
