Launch Window

Tales of Graces F Remaster occasionally feels dated thanks to its visuals and limited map, but the unique structure of the plot and fun combat make it a worthwhile addition to the library of any JRPG fan. The characters remain the stars of the show, with more growth and change over the course of the game than we expected. If the frequent but short load times don't get in your way, it is easy to sink dozens of hours into this adventure.

Quote not yet available, Tales of Graces f is a commendable remaster of a title that may not have been widely experienced by many players. It successfully retains the classic Tales combat mechanics, memorable music, and endearing characters that fans cherish.

If you were hoping for robust additional content, you’re out of luck. If quality-of-life tweaks, shinier graphics, and modern access to the game is all that you were looking for, you should be pleased. It’s certainly good enough for me.

And if the somewhat clumsy combat system clicks on top of the endearing characters and fun story, you’ve got a lowkey banger on your hands.

Early Review

Tales of Graces f Remastered does a great job improving the original's excellent gameplay with quality-of-life improvements and new options, such as the Grade Shop being available from the get-go, providing an experience that is fun right from the start for returning players. While the main story may not be particularly engaging, the charming cast and the outstanding combat system make the remaster a worthwhile purchase for newcomers who never had the chance to experience the PlayStation 3 original.

Tales of Graces f Remastered presents the ideal way to experience this enjoyable entry in the Tales series. While I can’t promise Graces will revolutionise your view of the genre, I can assure you of an enjoyable time in the company of an entertaining group of characters, coupled to a battle system that gets your adrenaline flowing. Just like Sophie, the memories you create in your time here will be worth the journey.

Early Review

Overall, Tales of Graces f Remastered is the same enjoyable experience from over a decade ago brought back in a clean package that runs well with some decent quality of life additions like the markers and toggles. Bandai Namco and the developers nailed it this time, no strings attached with this remaster. As for Tales of Graces itself, it stands out in the series with its sillier cast, striking art style, fast paced combat, and easy-to-understand and fun to master Title system. While I think this is the Tales Of game that benefits from co-op the most, you're getting a fun RPG with a lot of "power of friendship" speeches so if that appeals to you, you're in for a great time.

Tales of Graces f Remastered is a solid entry in the Tales of series. While the characters and story can be cliche at times, the overarching themes remain strong, and Bandai Namco's efforts to modernize the game are a standout showing.

And if you dislike inter-party drama and daddy issues, this may not be the game for you. That said, if you’re a JRPG fan and especially a Tales fan, I still recommend it. Just maybe wait for a sale first.

Early Review

Tales of Graces f Remastered is a wonderful expression of translating a classic JRPG onto modern consoles. Rather than attempt a costly, unnecessary overhaul, Tose and Bandai Namco paid respect to this legacy series by bringing it to a current audience, one made up of series veterans and newcomers.
